SIMIP enables high-resolution images rich in both chemical and spatial information. A quantum cascade laser (QCL) excites molecular vibrations while a spatial light modulator (SLM) generates striped ...

Werner Heisenberg's famous uncertainty principle describes one of the most intriguing features of quantum physics: certain pairs of physical quantities describing a particle, such as position and ...

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 ...

There is a growing demand for non-invasive insights into the complex three-dimensional subcellular dynamics within living tissues at the frontier of biological research. Professor Xi Peng's group at ...

Bioengineers bridge the gap between spectroscopy developers and biologists through a systematic guide explaining modern Raman ...

To unravel the complexities of biological phenomena, scientists have long relied on microscopy to visualize the intricate details of their specimens, including tissue architecture, cell morphology, ...

Microscopy is an imaging technique that enables us to see a world that would otherwise be invisible to us. Once upon a time, visualizing cells, microbes and other entities not perceptible to the naked ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Microscopes have long been scientists’ eyes into the unseen, revealing everything from bustling cells to viruses and nanoscale ...

Even those who maintain that super-resolution microscopy is a powerful tool of biological discovery have admitted that it may have a bit of an image problem. For example, in a recent review, several ...

When single-molecule super-resolution microscopes were first commercialized some 15 years ago, they made headlines for their ability to resolve individual molecules and structures at the nanometer ...
