Optical “tweezers” combine with X-rays to enable analysis of crystals in liquids

Optical “tweezers” hold crystal steady for X-ray experiment.

March 21, 2019 | Materials Science and Engineering

$Scientists have found a way to use “optical tweezers” by employing lasers, a mirror and a light modulator to anchor a crystal in solution. The “tweezers” have made it possible to conduct X-ray diffraction measurements of a crystal suspended in solution.$
