Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: ...

The rapid evolution of microscopy techniques has transformed our ability to visualise biological structures and processes at unprecedented resolutions. Advances in live‐cell imaging, super‐resolution ...

Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell ...

Force microscopy is a family of scanning probe microscopy techniques that enable the visualization and manipulation of materials at the nanoscale. These techniques rely on the interaction forces ...

One variation of electron microscopy is transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In a TEM experiment, the electron beam passes through the sample and the electrons are directly imaged onto an electron ...

Nanoscopy is a field of microscopy that focuses on imaging and studying structures and processes at the nanoscale, typically below the diffraction limit of light. It encompasses various techniques ...

A stained breast cancer sample was imaged using red, green, and blue LEDs. A new computational microscopy technique developed at Caltech, called APIC, was used to reconstruct the detailed color image ...

Artistic visualization of XLuminA's automated optical discovery process. The setup shows laser beams being guided through a network of optical elements including beam splitters, spatial light ...

In this article, we look at some of the key developments of various microscopy techniques over the last few years and how they have benefitted different areas of research and development. The impact ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have shown for the first time that expensive aberration-corrected microscopes are no longer required to achieve record-breaking ...

Under the microscope, plankton becomes an unlikely star as artist Jess Holz documents their movements to highlight both their ...
