Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which garnered a Nobel Prize in 1953, brought into clear view structures inside ...

A team led by Raju Tomer, professor of biological sciences at Columbia University, has created a new design for microscopes and microscope lenses that could push 3D tissue imaging beyond ...

In this study, a single atom trapped by an optical tweezer was successfully utilized as a scanning probe *4 for imaging the fine structures of intensity and polarization distributions of light ...

The blockbuster game Minecraft depicts a world created by cubes: everything is made of discrete building blocks. It may therefore seem particularly unsuitable for calculating pi (π), the mathematical ...

For those of us who weren't paying attention, over the last few years, scientists around the world have been one-upping each other in a bid to create the smallest QR code that can be reliably read.

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 ...

Researchers designed a computational framework that consists of a compact metalens-integrated microscope and a transformer-based neural network, which enables large FOV and subpixel resolution imaging ...

The University of Wyoming will soon house one of the most advanced microscopes in the Mountain West, thanks to a nearly $1.3 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded to Eunsook ...

Google’s YouTube will use artificial intelligence to improve the visual clarity of many low-resolution videos on its platform when viewed on TV screens, the web and mobile devices. YouTube will first ...

Three-dimensional structured illumination microscopy (3D-SIM) doubles the resolution of fluorescence imaging in all directions and enables optical sectioning with increased image contrast. However, 3D ...
