This article serves as a basic introduction to the design and operation of an atomic force microscope. The following sections cover the basic concepts and technologies that help understand the ...

Physicists have finally built a microscope that can watch superconducting electrons move in real time, and the picture is far ...

The ProZ motorised focus stand from Prior Scientific is the ideal solution for viewing and imaging of samples that may be too large, or irregularly shaped, to be fitted onto a standard microscope ...

My first microscope came in a small wooden box about one-third the size of a standard shoe box (not Frye boot size!) that neatly housed the microscope and five surgical tools: two scalpels, one pair ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new dark-field imaging technique that does not require specialized microscope ...

Engineers have developed a small, mirrored chip that helps to produce dark-field images, without dedicated expensive components. The chip is slightly larger than a postage stamp and as thin as a ...
