Researchers have developed an atom-diffraction imaging method with micrometer spatial resolution, which may allow new applications in material characterization. Microscopy with atoms offers new ...
Researchers have generated high-quality atom diffraction data from graphene, which could lead to new ways to measure surface interactions. A beam of neutral atoms striking a material can produce a ...
Surface plasmons (SPs), or more exactly, surface plasmon polaritons, are surface electromagnetic waves that propagate along the planar interface between a metal and a dielectric material [1] (see Fig.
