Listed in the Guinness World Records, this tiny electric motor needs a special kind of microscope capable of making out a ...

A home machinist and microscopy enthusiast has documented a detailed technical conversion of a ...

We present results for a new type of fiber-coupled stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscope which uses a single fiber to transport STED and excitation light, as well as collect the fluorescence ...

Researchers from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities College of Science and Engineering and Medical School have developed a unique head-mounted mini-microscope device that allows them to image ...

A team of Dutch and French researchers has built a microscope that can see atomic wave functions. The team has performed an experiment where they ionised xenon atoms in an electric field and recorded ...

In response to the emerging demand for dynamic and cross-scale microscopic observation in fields such as biology, medicine, and materials science, the liquid lens has been widely adopted in modern ...

Deep inside a small, windowless room at the University of California, Berkeley, two microscopes are quietly capturing some of ...

Two heads are better than one, as the saying goes, and sometimes two instruments, ingeniously recombined, can accomplish feats that neither could have done on its own. The microscope combines ...

In this way, and almost by chance, researchers at TU Wien developed a novel microscopy technique that allows the refractive index of biological samples to be measured at a resolution far below what ...

Learn about how Mark Raizen and his team at UT Austin have developed the world's highest resolution atom lens. An atom lens is analogous to a glass lens used in an optical microscope or magnifying ...
