Researchers have developed a new type of microscope that can acquire extremely large, high-resolution pictures of non-flat objects in a single snapshot. This innovation could speed up research and ...

The new microscope is a so-called multifocus microscope, which provides completely clear images, sorted into different layers, where you can study the cells from all angles. "It's a big deal. The fact ...

After years of development, researchers have managed to shrink two-photon microscopy into a device that can be mounted on rodents’ heads without impeding behaviour. As Weijian Zong stared at a ...

A research team at China's Peking University has made a new breakthrough in multiphoton microscopy by developing a miniature three-photon microscope that has successfully captured deep-brain images of ...

When trying to measure molecular structures with nanometer precision, every bit of noise shows up in the data: someone walking past the microscope, tiny vibrations in the building and even the traffic ...

Researchers have developed a deep learning algorithm for removing systematic effects from atomic force microscopy images, enabling more precise profiles of material surfaces. Atomic force microscopy, ...

Which compound microscope is best? Anybody who is into science has probably thought about getting a microscope. But with so many different types available, it can be overwhelming to decide on the ...

The Nikon Small World competition recognizes the art and science of microscope photography, or "microscopy." Scientists, artists, and enthusiasts from all over the world submit their painstakingly ...

Light microscope images of E. coli cells in transmitted light (left) and reflected light that picks up the red fluorescence of a dye staining the cells' DNA (right). In normal cells (upper panel), the ...

The microscope combines a big telecentric photolithography lens with a large tube lens to create sharp, detailed images of large and curved samples. These lenses project the image onto a flat array of ...
