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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

In this interview, we talk to Alex de Marco, an Associate Professor at Monash University, about the correlative use of light and electron microscopy in the study of biological samples, as well as the ...

An interview with Scott Olenych, from ZEISS, to discuss the challenges faced in neuroscience research microscopy techniques and to discuss their latest microscope that could help overcome some of ...

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, ...

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 ...
