MicroArt highlights the beauty and charm found in the microscopic world of materials. Most of the time our focus is on the technical and scientific aspect of microstructures, but we also know that the objects we observe in the microscope are often striking in their appearance. Here we devote some space among our technical publications to showcase micrographs that possess an interesting artistic aesthetic quality.
