Machine learning reveals the atomic structure of large and complex molecules

In a study recently published in Communications Chemistry, researchers from ICFO and partners of OPTOlogic report on a newly-developed machine learning algorithm for LIED to extract the three-dimensional structure of large and complex molecules. Revolutionary Discovery: Visualizing Molecular Transformation Until very recently, the very idea of witnessing how molecules break or transform during chemical reactions […]

Attosecond X-ray Spectroscopy in Quantum Materials

Applied Physics Reviews details the state-of-the-art of Attosecond Technology and showcases how Attosecond soft X-ray spectroscopy allows to understand the dynamics of conventional and quantum materials. Until recently, most soft X-ray spectroscopy science and experiments were only plausible in synchrotron facilities, limiting the amount of science that could be done and augmenting the cost of […]
