Visualizing the Size of One Twenty Thousandths the Width of a Human Hair

Electron Microscopes / /

How do we know that we build nanostructures properly? The typical structures that make up the computer or similar smart device you’re reading this on contain billions of separate nanostructures, controlling the sizes of these has been a major challenge in the electronic industry since the conception of the first integrated circuit. When fabricating these
