Electron microscopy has evolved into a suite of sophisticated techniques essential for investigating the structure and properties of materials at the nanoscale and beyond. By utilising focused ...

Integrating Digital Holographic Microscopy with fluorescence techniques enhances live-cell imaging, preserving cellular ...

In TIRF microscopy, fluorescent molecules are in a sample in an aqueous environment that is near a solid with a high refractive index, usually a glass coverslip. At what is called the critical angle, ...

Argonne and Northwestern University scientists teamed up to understand how light interacts with metallic nanoframes, with ...

In order to understand us as humans, and how the world around us functions, scientists want to investigate the inner workings of a cell. While what occurs in these tiny entities is miraculous, ...

The invention that first enabled researchers to see clear images of living cells was the phase-contrast microscope, which won its inventor, Frits Zernike, a Nobel Prize in 1932. Prior to Zernike's ...

Coherent Corp. has introduced the Axon FL, a new fiber coupling module designed to enhance the versatility of the Axon 920 TPC ultrafast femtosecond laser for Mini2P microscopy applications. This plug ...

The image pair captured in the banner shows the reduction in noise and increase in image quality between standard FDK imaging (left) and Zeiss DeepRecon Pro (right). Metal syntactic foam sample ...

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 ...

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 ...

Photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM) is a new technique that hit the market last year (2016) and is now seen, in some respects, as an alternative technique to atomic force microscopy (AFM). Here, we ...
