Scanning transmission electron microscopy images of columns of aluminium, boron and nitrogen atoms as they move in response to an electric field. The left panel shows an actual image, the right panel shows a theoretical model. The two are very similar except the experimental image is grey and fuzzy while the theoretical one is sharp and in false colour with blue and grey dots representing atoms.
