Infrared microscopy involves the examination of small samples, usually within the 10 to 100 μm range. Spatial resolution becomes a significant concern on the scale. The infrared light's relatively ...

Physicists at the Australian National University say that optical microscopes should get a huge boost in magnification, after their discovery of a new high harmonic laser illumination technique, using ...

Researchers have developed a new microscope that can visualize the optical response of surfaces at an unprecedented spatial resolution of one nanometer. This paves the way for optical microscopy of ...

Researchers designed a computational framework that consists of a compact metalens-integrated microscope and a transformer-based neural network, which enables large FOV and subpixel resolution imaging ...

Microscopes have long been scientists’ eyes into the unseen, revealing everything from bustling cells to viruses and nanoscale structures. However, even the most powerful optical microscopes have been ...

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 ...

Carbon nanotubes are cylindrical nanostructures made by rolling up sheets of graphene. Graphene sheets are only a single atom thick and this gives this form of carbon many special properties. For ...
