The University of Berkley now uses it to spot microaggressions.
Sir, thank you for this.
Harfast You win
LOLOOLO
Greatest comment on the internet I have heard in ages. You know brown university wont even let the microscope onto its campus
Haha
Ok it's been pretty much Ten years. What do we have now?
pewdiepie vs tseries
Was thinking the same thing. Let’s see that next version she was talking about
Flat earthers
Hitachi now have a 1.2 million volt EM
@FridayGood more like biden supporters

The way she says microscope and pops her mouth lol
Awesome.
The most perfect pop I've ever heard.
NinjaOnANinja good eaf
confused...
!
laughing so hard while trying to get my homework done. I haven't laughed this hard in a while.. jesus christ lol.
Life is infinitely small, infinitely big, however you zoom you'll always find it smaller and smaller.
Such a simple and awesome comentary!
your comments needs 100K likes👍
not sure
I bet they find there is no end. I think we'll find ourselfs looking into different deminsions. Awesome stuff
as a wise man once said: "big things can get smaller over time"
in like 50 years from now we'd be having those things at a size of a pc with clearer images
you think so?
I was thinking exactly the same thing!
this whole world is amazing. we have the mega large universe to mega tiny atom. but who knows, there may be even a larger space outside of the universe and may be another whole new compositions inside a proton or electron if we could continue to zoom in even further and further.
what if the atom consist of another dimension? a new world? new universe? What if our universe is like an atom to some other beings but we r so tiny we can't see it that way? 0 and 1 is same. infinite 0 and infinite 1, they are all infinite but going in the opposite direction thus there's no actual "number" so 0 and 1 in all in 1 that's infinite
WhatUwant? We think alike! I've always thought the same thing. Have you ever watched a video on microorganisms and how the organisms have eyes but can only see things it's size clearly, anything bigger to them probably feels like lightyears away and is black matter because their tiny eyes simply can't recieve light from that distance. One time I was smoking a ciggarette and when I exhaled it looked like a nebula cloud, made me wander if the little microrganisms floating in the air saw that as their universe. To me is was only a there for a few seconds, to them it was probably there for thousands of years. Interesting theory. But I feel that we're no microorganisms but rather made up of them. To microorganisms our body is their universe, and to us outer space is our universe. What if the stars are really atoms.
***** what is consciousness... I wonder. is it our soul or our brain
WhatUwant? I have this theory that our soul exists inside our brain, and that it's so microscopic even the most powerful microscope can't see it. And when we die, our soul becomes soil with our flesh, and when that soil fertalizes plants our souls are consumed by herbivores, then carnivores eat the herbivores (humans) absorbing us into the humans turning us into sperm again. I doubt it's accurate, but it's interesting.
***** u blew my mind..
This is what the world needs to focus on, literally and figuratively!!! Instead of creating machines that kill or destroy why not this type of innovation with our currencies?????
Patrick O'Connor 3 years ago but yes I agree
Born too late to explore earth
Born too early to explore space
Born just in time to explore the nanoworld.
Be proud!
Oh man, I just stumbled upon this video. I actually work on the TEAM 0.5 and the CM300 (in the same building). The TEAM 1.0 (the one that was not out yet during this video) is actually a pain in the ass. It just isn't very stable. Fun to see NCEM up here!

2009: the alluminum alloy they are looking at today could one day be used to build spaceship to Mars
2019: Elon Musk - hold my beer
Particle Style: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu.
Beautiful.
whats awesome is that when we can actually build things like microscopes on nano-scale we can actually see more clearly
so it's self improving tech
more and more precise tools are needed to make more and more precise tools
its awesome :D
Video on next version of this microscope?
Pond water is one of the favorites because that was the first thing reported on after being studied under a microscope.
Is that aluminum examination possibly related to using nickel aluminide? I read that that stuff might be the best material in the future. I assume something that powerful will be used for that type of thing.
Watch this beast turn into the size of a pen in the next few centuries. Like the huge computer which are now calculators for $5.
OMG! This video is from 8 years ago, but is looks so actual.
What?
You are admirable, sir.
Is there any way to increase the definition? It appears as though we are a stones throw away from seeing atomic nuclei like they were right in front of us!!!
It's 2022 now. Can I get this on Amazon yet?
How very interesting and exciting great video
wow that's crazy! 300,000 volts! Do you realize that most of those large power transmission towers you see, carry that much voltage, if not less (in some cases)?! Intense. :)
thanks
Wow! Why havent I seen this before?
high definition, woooow.......
Yeah at last!!
@@akt7433 It's a fake. With fake quantum mechanics and fake "highest resolution". Go look at nemescope.
That's awesome. We saw a few similar images in material science courses.
congrats!
First reply after a whole 10 years)))
Nano particle containing thickness fringes at dark field imaging condition where the (Xia g effective) comes in to play its awesome :)
In 15 years this microscope will be the size of a light microscope and cost $50.
will be an app for phones (?
***** Oh, so you've come from the future?
elitebelt Wiseass.
+ChoperJoJo You need hardware apparently. Software only cannot make everything.
Not true at all. These things can't get much smaller.
For some reason I feel so small after watching this....
This might be a dumb question but how do they see the atoms in the aluminum sample but not the atoms of air surrounding it? how to they prepare the sample to be vacuum and all that?
Sucking out all the air
Fantastic
@daltonairsofter
is it circle?? or we don't know
I'm an American, and I hate to break everyone's bubble, but according to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (Which includes the United States) we are supposed to spell it Aluminium also. You can spell it Aluminum if you want, but I prefer to agree with the Chemists that make decisions on these things.
Unreal.
Electrons sure can go inside atoms. They can interact with any electron in the atom, and some even hit the nucleus.
When viewing backscattered electrons, heavier elements are brighter because their larger nuclei redirect more electrons from the beam.
This is the third video about the Most Powerful Microscope I've watched today, and all three were different ones, the other two being in Japan. One of them is 700 metres long.
Well actually I'm not being accurate as this one is the most powerful while the first one I watched was the highest resolution one and the 700m long one was the 'strongest'.
:]
Whenever I see spherical aberration I feel like my eyes are backwards...
Just for grins, and because this is UA-cam, I'm going to argue with you ;)
Doesn't actually require that much power to run an electron microscope. The lenses run at a few tens of volts, and a few amps each. Basically a bunch of lightbulbs worth of power. The really thick cable ironically carries little power too, it's mostly insulation to prevent arcing. It's 300k volts, but microamps of current. The actual wires in there are pretty thin.
high voltage is required to produce high energy electrons in the electron gun
These are now 199.99 on amazon and the size of a coffee machine. Times change
People say that there is a very electronic microscope that zooms in 500,000 times and the Atoms and Molecules.
I love microscopes.
Their teach us to respect the smaller things in life.
Mind bending magic . My bucket list before I die to a buy myself a good microscope and telescope. I missed my calling.
its very helpful to research scientific work,its last super fast electron microscope in the
world,its costly.
"...WAS PRODUCED IN HIGH DEFINITION" Forgot how HD was a thing back then LOL.
have they already tried using harmonics to stabilize these metals?
So what do I call it Doc, The Intrepid or the Lu Lu Belle?
Funny thing that in the future this big microscope will be the size of a regular one.
I wondering, what are those things at 3:17.
may i selfie use this micsroscope?
you know what i say to this! "BALLS!!!"
Damn atoms
I do not believe it is possible to "see" an electron under any magnification, certainly not with electron microscopes since they have to have a smaller beam than the object.
At the end of 50's one man invented the nemoscope, able to magnify 3.5 million times. After he dies, the nemoscope dissapear.
+IvCastilla Your source for that info?
I can magnify unlimited....important thing is resolution...
The "nemoscope" was a hoax.
Can we see the air? My student told me that he can see the air through this microscope? Pls. Reply
Interesting
Every home should have one
This is what we need to see my weenie
A.G.I Will be man's last invention
good
what is this aluminem they keep talking about ? is it like aluminium ?
And this is 10 years ago 😲
shanuo-
the reason you dont see gaseous atoms is because electron microscopes operate in a vacuum so all the air is pumped out.
no its physically impossible to improve the light microscope past a certain point because it uses WAVES of light and the wavelength of light is the actual limiting factor...
no clue on ur 3rd question
I didn't see too much of the scope, because there was too much time wasted on other things. If you do make any more documentaries could you please get a voiceover that is listener friendly.
Shut up it was ok. But jeah do som more videos!
But how does this compare to the atomic force microscope?
Thank you almighty algorithm
Jesus christ, atoms!
rife universal microscope is real deal
The math states what the instrument can do so it’s known way ahead of time.
The real feat here is the people being able to fine tune with the most delicate of manipulation. People are so clunky when compared to what’s needed here.
Now I know what spherical aberrration!!! at last!
This is so brilliant, that I feel like a bug. I wish I could see more of the component shown in the video that demonstrates the orbitals acting in a kinetic fashion under pressure!
There is no doubt that there is an amazing amount of potential energy within these structures and that when we as a civilization finally un-numb our minds and figure out how to harness this potential, we will no longer think that UFO's are magic or aberrations of the atmospherics. We are at a precipice... ;-)
Shout out to Carl Grapentine (voice at the beginning) Also the voice of the Michigan Wolverines. :)
The Golem collections? Lol
Old microscope = awesome!
Re Alex Grinkov's comment: I think when Aluminium was first discovered, it was named 'Aluminum'. Later, scientists slightly adjusted the name to Aluminium to 'harmonise' it with elements like Calcium, Radium et cetera. So neither is really 'right/wrong'. American scientists stuck with the original name for some reason (traditionalism or deference to the discoverer) and Europeans preferred the version that fits the model of other elements. I'm British so I say 'Aluminium', but Americans could claim 'Aluminum' to be more precise. It's a bit like (British) 'got' versus (American) 'gotten'. In that particular case, the Yanks are right: forgot/forgotten, begot/begotten, got/gotten. I'm still not going to say it though :)
"American scientists stuck with the original name for some reason " - because "Aluminium" was just too difficult for them. Like "nuclear". It is _not_ "nookilla".
lol the fancy microscope was housed behind a wooden panel @2:05
Why doesn't everybody go see what the IUPAC says about "Aluminum". You know, the world authority that names all elements and has the final say over these things... It's ok if Americans want to use miles, inches, gallons and other seriously archaic measuring systems. They can even call aluminium aluminum. But the rest of the world, and the scientific community at large will continue doing things the best way possible. You know, the right way. :)
cool
hello after 10 years. so, do we have something even more powerful nowadays?
Check out Hitachi highest resolution electron microscope.
The technology lost, stolen. So-called highest resolution is merely a FRAUD. Money wasted on shits, craps.
Governmental control, illuminati, control maniacs, pedophiles, annunaki, rotchilds, pharma etc etc.
When are you people going to wake up?
The TRUE highest resolution atomic mircoscope : NEMESCOPE
@@lukiepoole6701 troll
@@thebeast5215 Of course you are going to assume the truth teller as "troll". Don't reply if you can't handle the truth.
Gamma rays don't really have smaller wavelengths than 300kev electrons anyway. Imaging small things is about wavelength.
1:53 Oh come on why does it have to be me!?
What I wanna know is how much does it zoom in?
I know you can buy microscopes online that zoom in to x2500, this one must be in the hundreds of thousands I’m guessing..
about 100000x
3:40 is that a Graphene??
*Laughs in S20 Ultra*
that's a technical argument and not a flame argument
9 years ago that means we have one better since its 2019
Right!
If there is no end to the micro world im sure there will be many many suprises for us to find in the future! Just as we do not know what lies beyond the furthest reaches of the universe!
PitFiend2001 HELLO I am from the future and you were spot on quantum physics made life weird as hell!
wow I always thought carbon bonds (the typical line between one carbon and another) were just a representation of atoms combination but it turns out those lines exist O.o .... ?
👍❤
This video was made when I turned 1 day old
@Morten CHUNG April fools lmao
@Morten CHUNG btw it isn’t even April 1st. If he was one day old on March 31, then he was born 1 day ago, on March 30.
@BEmuslimBE No this is just how carbon atoms combine
27 million microscope and 20 dollar monitor..
is the shape of atoms Hexagonal????
wow
4:43
What?
Everybody agrees?
Why? How?
Why are quantum particles displayed as spheres? Gravity should have little to no effect at that level, any number of shapes would be expected?
Can you imagine if we could make a Planck microscope? We could see all the way down to the smallest levels of our physical reality. And all the way down there, the particles would be stamped with tiny text reading "Made in China."
science is awsome. i wonder if one day they could build gamma ray microscope to actually see INSIDE an atom. that would be cool wouldnt it?
If we're going to talk about size, that microscope is what computers were 40-50 years ago. 40-50 years from now it's going to be so compact you could fit it in a small bag. We're a perpetually primitive species because evolution never stops.
+MrSatanochio i really wonder what is technology going to be like in 40 years. how are tvs, computers, microscopes, telescopes, cars, smartphones, watches, planes going to be.
No it isn't. You have no concept of how the microscope works. Take a 300 thousand volt power supply and put it in your small bag and let us know how that works after it arcs and sets you on fire.
aluisious computers used to be the size of whole rooms and had the power of a smartphone or less .
commenter78 Irrelevant. You are completely ignorant about how electron microscopes work so your analogy is worthless.
aluisious how do you know technology wont evolve in such a way for the microscope too?
Any image of virus?
