Smaller and more versatile laser confocal microscopy platforms would potentially be of great value for in vivo imaging of live biological specimens, in scenarios where the size of conventional ...

When one thinks about microscopy, it seems to be mostly qualitative. Looking at a slide teeming with bacteria or protozoans is less about making measurements and more about recognizing features and ...

A “perfect lens” that could let us zoom into single cells and viruses at a relatively low cost is a step closer to reality, thanks to researchers at Michigan Technological University (MTU) and ...

WASHINGTON -- Researchers have developed a new plug-and-play device that can add adaptive optics correction to commercial optical microscopes. Adaptive optics can greatly improve the quality of images ...

Built with sturdy materials, yet manufactured economically, the AmScope M150C is portable and the PS25 version comes with a selection of prepared slides; a good choice for a beginner to use at home, ...

Resolution mode for high-resolution imaging Field mode for large field of view imaging Depth mode for high depth of focus imaging Beam Rocking mode for Selected Area Electron Channeling and live 3D ...

Over on YouTube [Applied Science] shows us how to make an f/0.38 camera lens using an oil immersion microscope objective. The f-number of a lens indicates how well it will perform in low-light. To ...
