Fluorescence microscopy techniques are powerful tools for probing very small signals and revealing three-dimensional (3D) structural and functional properties of biological samples with high ...

3D optical microscope is a key metrology technique used in a myriad of industries. White light interferometry (WLI) and confocal microscopy or laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) are the other ...

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 ...

A significant step has been made toward breaking the so-called 'color barrier' of light microscopy for biological systems, allowing for much more comprehensive, system-wide labeling and imaging of a ...

Comparing Microscopy Techniques: This image contrasts conventional fluorescent microscopy with STORM processing, highlighting how STORM achieves superior resolution by activating and precisely ...

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...
