Electron microscopes are used wherever particularly small details need to be imaged. But from a strictly physical point of view, every electron in a conventional electron microscope represents a ...

New research from a team at the Center for Molecular Spectroscopy and Dynamics within the Institute of Basic Science (IBS) in Seoul, South Korea reports on the development of an optical microscope ...

The unique properties of quantum physics could help solve a longstanding problem that prevents microscopes from producing sharper images at the smallest scales, researchers say. The breakthrough, ...

A TEM works by focusing a beam of electrons through a thin sample and capturing the image on a detector on the other side. Such instruments are much better at looking at very tiny objects than an ...

Super resolution: image taken using the new chip. (Courtesy: Bielefeld University / Robin Diekmann) A photonic chip that allows a conventional microscope to work at nanoscale resolution has been ...

Congratulations to the Nano-Optics Group, led by Professor Markus Raschke, who has announced a record-breaking new optical microscope that can capture images at both the ultrafast and the nano-scale.

Study of proteins as a single molecule shows promise to help scientists understand the causes of diseases like some cancers. Research on bunched molecules could lead to a more efficient way to ...
