| | | First ever close up view of a molecule
I thought this was really cool..... Single molecule, one million times smaller than a grain of sand, pictured for first time | Mail Online
It may look like a piece of honeycomb, but this lattice-shaped image is the first ever close-up view of a single molecule.
Scientists from IBM used an atomic force microscope (AFM) to reveal the chemical bonds within a molecule.
'This is the first time that all the atoms in a molecule have been imaged,' lead researcher Leo Gross said.
