Abstract
Carbon membranes recently created by scientists at Germany's Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research are only one atom thick. For electrons, such membranes are almost completely transparent, and using an electron microscope researchers may be able to examine absorbed individual molecules on the membranes and image the atomic structure of complex biological molecules. The ultra-thin membranes also may be used in filtration applications. This feature article briefly looks at their development.
