This is a view of a research chip through a microscope: a high concentration of antifreeze proteins ensures that the drops freeze at temperatures that are less cold than usual (frozen drops are dark).

He says, "We came up with the idea of measuring ice immersed in antifreeze colder than 0 ... we found that we had to cool the entire microscope system in a cooling box, and it took some ingenuity ...

For the first time, researchers from Kobe University led by ONISHI Hiroshi observe the precise shape of ice at the interface between ice and liquid. Due to the complexity of the task, researchers ...
