Scientists capture first images of molecules before and after reaction
Scientists capture first images of molecules before and after reaction - Using atomic force microscopy, chemists for the first time can capture images of molecules before and after they react, which will allow them to better tune reactions to get the products they want. Chemists and physicists joined forces to develop the technique, which could help scientists study and improve catalytic reactions like those used widely in industry to make chemicals or crack oil.(10.1126/science.1238187)
