Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell ...

Transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) allow researchers at the forefront of energy technology to study next-generation ...

Seeing the small world up close gives students a clearer picture of the larger world around us. Here are the microscopes to help them get started. By John Alexander Published Apr 10, 2024 4:00 PM EDT ...

We have all seen those cheap digital microscopes, whether in USB format or with its own screen, all of them promising super-clear images of everything from butterfly wings to electronics at amazing ...

Electron microscopes have been helping us see what the things around us are made of for decades. These microscopes use a beam of electrons to illuminate extremely small structures, but they can't ...

X-ray vision was state-of-the-art when Superman launched his career in the 1930s. But if the superhero wants to keep pace with the modern world of nanotechnology, he should upgrade to electron vision, ...

In the not-so-distant future, there will be a new kind of microscope on the market. One that can easily fit in a backpack or purse and zoom in up to 1,000 times, making it possible for pretty much ...

Ordinary microscopes can see 8 times more minutely than known physical limits if miniature glass spheres are sprinkled onto samples, according to a new study. The cheapest and most common microscopes ...

The unique properties of quantum physics could help solve a longstanding problem that prevents microscopes from producing sharper images at the smallest scales, researchers say. The breakthrough, ...

Confocal laser scanning microscopes (CLSMs) use a laser to generate a digital image of a given sample. Confocal microscopes work in tandem with ‘fluorescent tagging’, which involves the alteration of ...

For those of you who haven’t visited the websites of Carl Zeiss or Nikon lately, fluorescent microscopes are expensive. Typically, microscopes of the sort required by pathologists to make diagnosis ...
