Researchers at Texas A&M University have cracked a problem that has limited biological imaging for years: seeing fine ...

"Precision medicine" has become increasingly popular in the last decade as an avenue for cancer therapy, where treatment strategies are tailored to a specific patient based on the unique ...

Researchers at the University of Adelaide, as part of an international team, have developed an approach that makes advanced microscopy possible through an optical fiber thinner than a human hair.

A system-level comparative study demonstrates how galvanometric mirror dynamics dictate imaging speed, phase delay, and ...

Researchers catalogue the artifacts that arise when biological samples are imaged by optical scanning transmission electron ...

Just as it is difficult for a camera to keep both a nearby flower and a distant mountain sharply focused at the same time, conventional optical microscopes face a similar challenge when imaging ...

Researchers have developed a new microscope that can visualize the optical response of surfaces at an unprecedented spatial resolution of one nanometer. This paves the way for optical microscopy of ...

Introduction to SNOM: The Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM) stands as a pivotal analytical tool in nanotechnology, enabling the visualization of nanostructures with resolution beyond the ...

A self-configuring photonic chip separates partially coherent light into distinct optical modes that emerge through different ...

Every schoolkid has peered into a microscope and been awed by the hidden world of skin cells and squiggly bacteria. But microscopes are also critical tools for investigating the causes of disease and ...
