Princeton scientists are peering into the smallest corners of matter using an exceptional collection of sophisticated microscopes — some so big they fill a room. These remarkable instruments have ...
A new two-photon fluorescence microscope developed at UC Davis can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination.
The scanning-electron microscope was used to examine the cortical surface of 123 species of lichens in 12 genera of the lichen family Parmeliaceae. Two general types of cortex were found, one ...
Researchers have built an upgraded quantum microscope that can map momentum-resolved tunneling spectra in graphene at room temperature and extract signatures consistent with electron–electron ...
The microscope is an iconic symbol of the life sciences – and for good reason. From the discovery of the existence of cells to the structure of DNA, microscopy has been a quintessential tool of the ...
Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete ...
Researchers have developed a unique shape-tunable mirror that can change shape to optimally channel X-rays. It is composed of a single crystal of lithium niobate. This new technology offers the ...
