A nonlinear system, exhibiting a unique asymptotic behaviour, while being continuously subject to a stimulus from a certain class, is said to suffer from fading memory. This interesting phenomenon was first uncovered in a non-volatile tantalum oxide-based memristor from Hewlett Packard Labs back in 2016 out of a deep numerical investigation of a predictive mathematical description, known as the Strachan model, later corroborated by experimental validation.

Correlative light and cryo-electron microscopy (CLEM) can be used to study macromolecular structures in vitreous state of the complex environment of the cell. The associated workflow, however, is still cumbersome and low throughput. [...]

In the recent years, scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) applying focused electron illumination, has been shown to have the capacity to image extremely electron beam sensitive materials [1, 2], including single molecules trapped within porous Zeolite channels [3, 4]. This has been achieved through integrated differential phase contrast STEM mode, known as iDPC-STEM [5–7], which is a dose efficient imaging technique, with directly interpretable contrast transfer function (CTF) and high signal to noise ratio (SNR), as main advantages over the conventional (S)TEM techniques.
