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 ...

The new type of microscope makes light travel in a circle. That way it can interact multiple times with the sample. Everyone who ever took a photo knows the problem: if you want a detailed image, you ...

A new method published in Nature Methods removes much of the guesswork and time-consuming optimization from sample ...

Researchers built a microscope that captures large, high-resolution images of uneven objects in one shot, aiding diagnostics, research, and quality inspection. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have ...

Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

Beach sand is more than tiny rocks. Under the microscope, a sample from Australia’s South Coast reveals fascinating details, ...

Everyone who ever took a photo knows the problem: if you want a detailed image, you need a lot of light. In microscopy, however, too much light is often harmful to the sample—for example, when imaging ...
