Ultrafast Photonic Electron Microscopy: Visualising dynamics at the nanoscale

分子过程的动态太快，不能用任何显微镜观察，所以科学转而依赖于记录这些变化前后的静态，推断两者之间发生了什么。该项目旨在结合超快光子激光控制和电子显微镜的优势，使物理和生物系统中纳米级的动力学能够直接可视化。通过提供一个关于分子物体的热混乱如何产生秩序的观点，这个项目旨在帮助揭示生命的物理基础。

The dynamics of molecular processes are too fast to observe with any microscope so science has instead relied on recording the static before and after states of these changes, inferring what happens in between. This project aims to combine the advantages of ultrafast photonic laser control and electron microscopy to allow the direct visualisation of dynamics at the nanoscale in physical and biological systems. By providing a view into how order emerges from the thermal chaos of molecular objects this project aims to help to reveal the physical basis for life.
