Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which ...

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

Conceptual illustration of the bidirectional quantitative scattering microscope, which detects both forward and backward scattered light from cells. This dual detection enables visualization of ...

The DeepInMiniMicroscope developed by UC Davis electrical engineering professor Weijian Yang combines optical technology and machine learning to create a device that can take high-resolution ...

In a recent study published in Optica, scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) created a 3D quantum ghost imaging microscope, the first of its type. Until now, two dimensions or ...

Chris Doble] has high ambitions: he’s making his own scanning-electron microscope, and as the first step he’s built a ...
