The world s third soft X-ray free-electron laser facility, based in Shanghai, recently achieved full coverage of the wavelengths of the water window , which will allow scientists to observe live cells.
Observations of the characteristics, internal structure and dynamic changes of cells at the femtosecond level－a quadrillionth of a second－are expected to lead to new insights in live cell imaging and discoveries in materials research, physics, chemistry and biology, experts said.
