A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical ...

Discover why the witec360 Raman microscope is considered the gold standard for correlative microscopy and nanoscale imaging.

Behold, the world’s fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it’s the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. This is a potentially ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a suite of algorithms to automate the counting of sister ...

There’s an old joke that you can’t trust atoms — they make up everything. But until fairly recently, there was no real way to see individual atoms. You could infer things about them using X-ray ...

Researchers from the Optics Group at the Universitat Jaume I in Castellón have managed to correct in real time problems ...

Biomedical engineering students Brandon Buscaglia and Marcus D’Aguiar are helping physicians see the invisible. The undergraduates developed a motorized stage and tracking prototype that works in ...

This degree of magnification and resolution is made possible by the use of a Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope, or FIB-SEM. Ordinary microscopes will not produce the same results. Curious ...

A close-up look at water samples from a fallout shelter under the microscope, exploring what’s visible at the microscopic ...
