China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has granted regulatory approval for 2 next-generation ophthalmic ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. A new microscope combines a normal optical scope with a see ...

Nonlinear optical dynamics—intensity-dependent response of light upon interaction with materials under high-intensity light sources—are of huge significance in modern photonics, finding applications ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Direct visualization and manipulation of individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in ambient conditions is of great significance for their characterizations and applications. However, ...

Optical microscopes depend on light, of course, but they are also limited by that same light. Typically, anything under 200 nanometers just blurs together because of the wavelength of the light being ...

Researchers from Regensburg and Birmingham have overcome a fundamental limitation of optical microscopy. With the help of ...

Contrary to conventional wisdom, technology's advance into the vanishingly small realm of molecules and atoms may not be out of sight for the venerable optical microscope, after all. In fact, ...

By combining two fundamentally different microscopy techniques, researchers can now measure the optical properties of a ...

Widely considered the most common type of microscope, Optical Microscopes magnify visible light to allow for the examination of features too small for the naked eye. This kind of microscope is ...

GLONIK has released a new 3D optical microscope that allows users to freely change their views, not only vertical view but also oblique views at arbitrary angles. GLONIK's patented technology provides ...

New work enables optical microscopes to measure these nanometer-scale details with a new level of accuracy. Over the last two decades, scientists have discovered that the optical microscope can be ...

Since the invention of the optical microscope in the 17th century, a remarkable evolution can be observed in the microscope’s performance and diversity. On the other hand, if we focus on its structure ...
