This story originally featured on Popular Science. A journey that began nearly a century ago, when scientists invented the first electron microscope, has taken yet another step. “This is the ...

When trying to measure molecular structures with nanometer precision, every bit of noise shows up in the data: someone walking past the microscope, tiny vibrations in the building and even the traffic ...

Analyzing magnetic nanostructures with a high resolution is a test-and-measurement challenge, but it’s important for both advanced physics insight as well as real-world products such as high-density ...

Researchers have developed a new two-photon fluorescence microscope that captures high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution. By imaging much faster and with less harm to brain tissue ...

The microscope combines a big telecentric photolithography lens with a large tube lens to create sharp, detailed images of large and curved samples. These lenses project the image onto a flat array of ...

(Nanowerk News) Integrated optical signal distributing, processing, and sensing networks require the miniaturization of basic optical elements, such as waveguides, splitters, gratings, and optical ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have successfully detected electron vortices in graphene for the first time using a high-resolution magnetic field sensor. The study was published in the scientific journal ...

Microscopes have long been scientists’ eyes into the unseen, revealing everything from bustling cells to viruses and nanoscale structures. However, even the most powerful optical microscopes have been ...

The Aplo Scope is a new single-molecule super-resolution microscope designed for molecular imaging. The microscope combines imaging, laser control, and what the company describes as intuitive software ...

The University of Wyoming will soon house one of the most advanced microscopes in the Mountain West, thanks to a nearly $1.3 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded to Eunsook ...
