Researchers from the University of Vermont, Boston University, and the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have demonstrated a new experimental capability for watching thin film growth in real-time. The researchers were able to produce a "movie" of thin film growth that depicts the process more accurately than traditional techniques can.
