Light microscopy is a key tool that scientists use to image cells, organelles, subcellular structures, and molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. Because visible light leaves biological ...

The invention that first enabled researchers to see clear images of living cells was the phase-contrast microscope, which won its inventor, Frits Zernike, a Nobel Prize in 1932. Prior to Zernike's ...

Sulfanilamide is best known as a treatment for yeast infections, but as it turns out, it dazzles under a microscope. Just ask José Manuel Martínez López, a microscopy specialist at the instrumentation ...

Automated DIC imaging with the DM6 M microscope enhances six-inch wafer inspection, providing reproducible results and improved efficiency for defect analysis.

Quantitative phase imaging is a powerful, non-invasive and quantitative microscopy technique that allows multi-scale imaging of cellular systems, explain Mustafa Mir and Gabriel Popescu Imaging by ...

Although electron microscopy can already reveal details as small as one nanometer, ongoing research seeks to break through barriers limiting image quality and reducing the optical dose on the samples.

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. Fritz Zernike (1888-1966), a Dutch ...

Physicists have finally built a microscope that can watch superconducting electrons move in real time, and the picture is far ...

Infrared microscopy involves the examination of small samples, usually within the 10 to 100 μm range. Spatial resolution becomes a significant concern on the scale. The infrared light's relatively ...
