Bespoke vacuum sample environments at synchrotron X-ray facilities reveal nanoscale kinetics, chemical transformations and other processes relevant to materials synthesis, explains Paul Evans Window ...

Two piezoelectric solids 1, 2 are separated by a vacuum gap of width d. An incoming acoustic wave from solid 1 (positive z-axis of a laboratory coordinates xyz) with an incident angle θ i tunnels ...

The cutting-edge vacuum technology under development at Brazil’s new synchrotron, Sirius, will allow more stable and brighter X-ray beams for the study of matter at shorter length and timescales, ...

Strong laser fields were supposed to be the cleanest way to watch electrons move, yet the latest experiments show that the vacuum itself can quietly reshape what those fields do. By flooding matter ...
