Scientists discover new laboratory product software

Scientists have discovered new software that will allow researchers to identify crystal structures - and even see individual atoms.

The software has been dubbed quantitative electron diffraction (QED) and is expected to offer a wealth of new opportunities in electron crystallography.

Released by HREM Research, Max Planck Software has licensed the new development.

Enabling scientists to spot individual atoms in each specimen, it can also gather large-angle rocking-beam electron diffraction - also known as LARBED.

This can then be used to create three-dimensional information about the subject.

The company highlights that researchers will therefore be able to "better extract information about the structure of crystalline materials in various fields of applications, such as materials science, geology and life sciences".

Recently, American Roentgen Ray Society disclosed the algorithm research of Dr Candice Bookwalter.

She discovered a new algorithm - Motion Artifact Removal by Retrospective Resolution Reduction (MARs) - to reduce the issues caused by movement during MRIs.
