Scientists have observed atomic magnetic fields, the origin of magnetic forces, for the first time using an innovative Magnetic-field-free Atomic-Resolution STEM they developed.

"Our atomic-resolution holography electron microscope will be used by various parties, contributing to advances in a wide range of fields ranging from fundamental physics to next-generation devices.

Electron tomography enables 3D visualization of nanostructures at the atomic scale, providing insights into materials science, catalysis, energy storage, and structural biology.

Previously, the atomic-scale structure of amorphous materials could only be handled qualitatively, or predicted/estimated using molecular dynamics (MD). Use of the 3D structural visualization ...

Scientists have succeeded in directly observing an atomic magnetic field, the origin of magnets (magnetic force), for the first time.
