Real science: First "direct" pictures of an individual molecule
From MacGregor Campbell's "Microscopes zoom in on molecules at last" in New Scientist:
- "Thanks to specialised microscopes, we have long been able to see the beauty of single atoms. But strange though it might seem, imaging larger molecules at the same level of detail has not been possible".
- Image alongside accompanies the article & is a directly taken picture with the new technique of "pentacene, an organic molecule consisting of five benzene rings".
