An infrared microscope designed by a University of Iowa team led by Thomas Folland helped produce information that could help ...

When selecting a microscope, it’s important to consider various features, such as the field of view, frame construction, lighting, optical quality and resolution. There are several types of ...

In a truly futuristic feat, researchers from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, have built a 3D-printed ...

Unlike light microscopes, these devices use electron ... The second pulse, the optical gating pulse, creates a precise time window for the single attosecond electron pulse, which is crucial ...

University of Strathclyde scientists 3D print $60 microscope in less than three hours using a publicly available design from OpenFlexure.

He said: “This is a world record in terms of how small an optical microscope can go by direct imaging under a light source covering the whole range of optical spectrum. “Not only have we been able to ...

What is the Diffraction Limit? The diffraction limit is a fundamental barrier in optical microscopy that sets the minimum size of features that can be resolved using conventional light microscopes. It ...
