A few months ago, I've written about the most powerful microscope in the world which was able to display images at an incredible high-resolution of just 0.05 nanometer (or 50 picometers). It seems ...

A new "self-driving" microscope developed by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers solves two fundamental challenges that have long plagued microscopy: first, imaging living cells or organisms at ...

Scientists can now detect magnetic behavior at the atomic level with a new electron microscopy technique. The researchers took a counter intuitive approach by taking advantage of optical distortions ...

A DESCRIPTION of a small measuring microscope devised by us may be of interest to readers of NATURE. The optical elements are extremely simple, consisting of a Ramsden eyepiece having a scale, divided ...

The scanning-tunneling microscope (STM), which is used to study changes in the shape of a single molecule at the atomic scale, impacts the ability of that molecule to make these changes, researchers ...

Conventional light microscopy has been instrumental for the study of cells and microorganisms; fluorescence microscopy has enabled visualization of even smaller cell features by selectively adding ...

Researchers in Europe have invented a new hypersensitive scale that can be used to measure fluctuations in living cells in real-time, Digital Trends reports. The Cytomass Monitor can measure the ...
