Much like radio operators being encouraged to use the least possible amount of power to make a contact, chemists have a ...

Werner Heisenberg's famous uncertainty principle describes one of the most intriguing features of quantum physics: certain pairs of physical quantities describing a particle, such as position and ...

The technology at the center of the growing "resolution revolution" has again shown its value to scientists at Yale by ...

Infrared microscopy involves the examination of small samples, usually within the 10 to 100 μm range. Spatial resolution becomes a significant concern on the scale. The infrared light's relatively ...

Fundamentally, a microscope comprises two subsystems: an illumination system to illuminate the sample and an imaging system that produces a magnified image of the light that has interacted with the ...

The short length of the estrous cycle of rats makes them ideal for investigation of changes occurring during the reproductive cycle. The estrous cycle lasts four days and is characterized as: ...

Scanning electron microscopes are one of those niche instruments that most of us don’t really need all the time, but would still love to have access to once in a while. Although we’ve covered a few ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JEOL Ltd. (TOKYO:6951) (President & COO Izumi Oi) announced that it has developed semi-in-lens versions (i)/(is) which are optimal for the observation of semiconductor devices ...

The biophysical properties of polymer based gels, for instance the commonly used Matrigel, crucially depend on polymer concentration. Only certain polymer concentrations will produce a gel optimal for ...
