The article reports that the researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California have successfully taken high resolution photographs of the transformation of nanoscale structures. According to the researchers, discerning the brief behavior of a chemical reaction, structural deformation or phase transformation allows them to understand the fundamentals of chemistry, biology and material science. It mention that the lab's dynamic transmission electron microscope made it possible to take the photographs.

The article reports on the possibility that the research on holographic impedance funded by the U.S. Air Force could lead to the development of advanced antennas that will give aircraft improved aerodynamics. Accordingly, the research is being conducted under the Air Force Office of Scientific Research contact by HRL Laboratories in Malibu, California. HRL's researcher Daniel F. Sievenpiper said that a unique technique similar to how people make hologram is used and that they can potentially make antennas that are completely flush with aircraft surface.
