This is part of the machine that my friend built. It is a 'scanning tunnelling microscope', or STM, which allows you to visualize things as small as atoms! Amazing. Here he is preparing the surface of the silicon wafer that he is going to look at by running a current through it and heating it up a LOT.Saturday, November 17, 2007

Guess I should do something with this blog. Here's a picture, on a recent trip to Kingston. I went hiking at the Frontenac Provincial Park, and we saw and caught the little guy below. We let him go really fast though, don't worry. It was a 'catch and release'. We saw some way bigger ones later too, but we didn't pick them up, and none of them fit in the palm of a hand. Click on it to see it big. It looks way better.
