A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light. Researchers from the Physical Chemistry and Theory departments at the Fritz ...

Microscopy plays a pivotal role in modern biomedical research, enabling the visualization of fine structures in complex specimens. Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is a computational imaging ...

The depth-defying lens can focus on multiple objects at different distances.

A new method allows nearly perfect optical sharpness for scenes requiring a wide depth of field, with just two photos.

A device smaller than a grain of dust is emerging as a surprisingly powerful candidate to reshape how quantum computers are ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University's College of Engineering have proposed a new photography method that eliminates the need to choose between focusing on the foreground, midground, ...

Polarized light is one of the most powerful tools scientists have for peering inside matter, yet the way it twists, scatters ...

Combining microscopy and machine-learning techniques leads to faster, more precise analyses of critical coating materials ...

Research presented by Professor Cecilia Johansson of Imperial College London has linked early type I interferon signalling in ...

A fully open-source platform provides a compact rheometer that can be easily combined with optical microscopy, allowing ...

A microscope that cost less than £50 and took under 3 hours to build using a common 3D printer could be transformative for ...

New research offers clearer insight into how phase transitions unfold at the atomic scale in real materials. When ice turns into water, the change happens almost instantly. Once the melting ...
