Modern imaging is contributing significantly to giving us a better understanding of how our brains work. In the long term, ...

Rather than relying on optics, the microscopy system offers a chemically encoded way to map biomolecules' relative positions. Microscopy just got reinvented -- again. Traditionally, scientists have ...

Conventional light microscopy has its limits. Light, being a wave, is subject to diffraction which severely limits the size of structures one can resolve. To be able to observe parts of an organism ...

This article discusses how optical microscopy is used in analyzing, visualizing and imaging nanomaterials as well as its limitations and recent studies related to optical microscopy utilization in ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 11, 2006 -- A new type of microscopy invented by Xiaowei Zhuang and colleagues at Harvard University and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute delivers spatial resolution more ...

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 ...

Due to the nature of light, a traditional optical microscope can be employed to attain a maximum magnification of around 800–1000x. For further magnification, scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) can ...

Optical microscopy is a very useful technique to examine the appearance of a sample with greater detail, but there are some limitations that provide a boundary to its use in practice. Cross section of ...

A traditional optical microscope can be used to achieve a maximum magnification of about 800–1000x due to the nature of light. Scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) can be used for further ...

Thin optical lattices can be used to generate light sheets in order to image dynamic processes at high spatial and temporal resolution. Light-sheet microscopy has gained popularity in recent years, ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Microscopy Market by Product, Type, Application, End User - Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering. The microscopy market is ...
