Optical microscopes have for a long time played a vital role in biomedical research. Their ability to provide multidimensional structural and functional information about a specimen in a non-invasive ...

Most conventional light microscopes have a resolution of 200 nanometers – this means that imaged objects which are any closer together won't be seen as separate items. A new high-tech microscope slide ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. A new microscope combines a normal optical scope with a see-through ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

AXT has recently been appointed the local distributor for Phi Optics, an innovative developer of Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI) solutions for live cell and tissue microscopy. Phi Optics’ modular ...

Fundamentally, a microscope comprises two subsystems: an illumination system to illuminate the sample and an imaging system that produces a magnified image of the light that has interacted with the ...

Congratulations to the Nano-Optics Group, led by Professor Markus Raschke, who has announced a record-breaking new optical microscope that can capture images at both the ultrafast and the nano-scale.

[Peter] has finished up his fiber optic microscope light source. When we last visited [Peter] he created a dimmer circuit for a 10 watt LED. That LED driver has now found its final home in [Peter’s] ...

Researchers have created a method to design custom masks that transform 2D fluorescent microscopy images into 3D movies. Rice University researchers have added a new dimension to their breakthrough ...
