The development of microscopy and photonic techniques has enabled progress across a wide variety of research fields, mainly in the life sciences, where advanced microscopy has increased the contrast, ...

They can make tiny cell structures visible: cutting-edge light microscopes offer resolutions of a few tenths of a nanometer -- in other words, a millionth of a millimeter. Until now, super-resolution ...

Researchers have developed a new method for rapid 3D imaging. Instead of having to scan repeatedly in 2D, the researchers proposed a one-scan technique that uses a light needle to process at depth and ...

Using a "spooky" phenomenon of quantum physics, Caltech researchers have discovered a way to double the resolution of light microscopes. In a paper appearing in the journal Nature Communications, a ...

Brightfield microscopy has been widely used for hundreds of years, while reflection contrast microscopy is relatively new technology. As one of the earliest and simplest microscopy techniques, ...

Linkam Scientific Instruments, a market leader in temperature-controlled microscopy, has reported on the use of its temperature-controlled stages for CLEM and fluorescence microscopy to assist in ...

Built with sturdy materials, yet manufactured economically, the AmScope M150C is portable and the PS25 version comes with a selection of prepared slides; a good choice for a beginner to use at home, ...

A newly proposed technique enables rapid 3D image acquisition. One-scan is a technique involving an elongated light spot that resembles a “needle” which captures three-dimensional (3D) images of a ...
