A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

New device could be used to observe structures as small as individual proteins, as well as the environment in which they move ...

At Neuroscience 2019, the 49 th annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience, Bruker (Nasdaq: BRKR) today announced the release of the Luxendo LCS SPIM light-sheet fluorescence microscope for fast ...

Engineers have developed a technology that turns a conventional light microscope into what's called a super-resolution microscope. It improves the microscope's resolution (from 200 nm to 40 nm) so ...

Receive emails about upcoming NOVA programs and related content, as well as featured reporting about current events through a science lens. The new microscope uses a 405 nm laser—the same wavelength ...

Researchers have created the world’s smallest silicon LED and holographic microscope that opens up a wide range of potential applications, including turning your smartphone camera into a portable, ...

NASA began testing a new multi-capability microscope this week on the International Space Station. It will help scientists study the effects of the space environment on physics and biology aboard the ...

Photonic force microscopy is similar to atomic force microscopy, where a fine-tipped needle is used to scan the surface of something extremely small such as DNA. Rather than a needle, researchers used ...

Fundamentally, a microscope comprises two subsystems: an illumination system to illuminate the sample and an imaging system that produces a magnified image of the light that has interacted with the ...

IT SOUNDS like a claim as bold as turning base metals into gold or travelling faster than light. Viewing nanoscale particles with a light microscope just can’t be done. But the red dots visible down a ...
