Electrical engineers at the University of California San Diego developed a technology that improves the resolution of an ordinary light microscope so that it can be used to directly observe finer ...

Powerful microscopes have made a quantum leap. Using a quantum trick with light has allowed researchers to examine living cells in unprecedented detail without destroying them, a technique that could ...

A new variation on cathodoluminescence provides a view of a sample’s optical response with time resolution shorter than an optical cycle. You have full access to this article via your institution. Fig ...

In 1931, physicists Knoll and Ruska unveiled the first electron microscope, revolutionizing science by using magnetic lenses ...

Imaging large cleared tissues requires scaling the throughput of imaging techniques. Light sheet microscopy is a promising technique for high-throughput imaging; however, its reliance on conventional ...

Hosts of new applications have turned the light microscope into an exquisitely sensitive measuring device that can be used to image dynamic cellular events right down to the molecular level. Indeed, ...

New Advanced Imaging Center Powered by Two MuVi and LCS SPIM Microscopes NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR), a leading supplier of single-plane illumination microscopy (SPIM) ...

You’ve probably seen images of scientists peering down a microscope, looking at objects invisible to the naked eye. Indeed, microscopes are indispensable to our understanding of life. They are just as ...

Engineers have developed a technology that turns a conventional light microscope into what's called a super-resolution microscope. It improves the microscope's resolution (from 200 nm to 40 nm) so ...
