Life in the nano lane just got faster in terms of knowledge of fundamental mechanisms working at the nanoscale -- where processes are driven by a dance of particles such as atoms and ions one-billionth of a meter. Advancing nanoscale understanding, a team of researchers has developed a visualization technique based on in situ transmission electron microscopy that offers novel and powerful functionality. It directly correlates the atomic-scale structure with physical and chemical properties.
