Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) have developed an innovative microscopy ...

Chiral metasurfaces can strongly twist the polarization of light, but how this process unfolds in space and time has been unclear. Scientists in China have now used ultrafast electron microscopy and ...

Researchers have used tip-scan high-speed atomic force microscopy combined with an optical microscope to observe light-induced deformation of azo-polymer films. The process could be followed in real ...

Integrating deep learning in optical microscopy enhances image analysis, overcoming traditional limitations and improving classification and segmentation tasks.

Researchers at Kumamoto University have discovered that a purely inorganic crystal grown from water solution can emit ...

For human researchers, it takes many years of work to discover new super-resolution microscopy techniques. The number of possible optical configurations of a microscope -- for example, where to place ...

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 ...

Huge strides have been made over recent years concerning scanning electron microscopes (SEMs and EPMAs), especially when observing and chemically analyzing materials across various fields of interest, ...
