Researchers use a microscopic ruler to measure one atom-wide distances between molecules

SMRTR summary

German researchers developed a groundbreaking method to measure intramolecular distances with angstrom-level precision. Using fluorescent markers and a novel approach called Minflux, they measured distances as small as 0.1 nanometers - about the width of an atom - potentially revolutionizing protein folding research and possibly impacting semiconductor technology development.
