A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Researchers have built a tiny, lightweight microscope that captures neuron activity with unprecedented speed that can be used ...

Professor Timo Betz is a biophysicist at the University of Göttingen in Germany. His name is found on widely cited research papers with serious-sounding titles like Neurite branch retraction is caused ...

This material is usually nearly invisible in optical microscopes because it has no optical resonances. To resolve this issue, ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. In recent times, there have been leaps and bounds with the kind of microscopes available to us, such as AI-powered microscopes that can help ...

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next ...

A miniature microscope hidden in a Cotswolds house has sold for more than £18,000 at auction. The rare scientific instrument, dating from the 18th Century, was sold by auctioneers at Kinghams ...

This degree of magnification and resolution is made possible by the use of a Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope, or FIB-SEM. Ordinary microscopes will not produce the same results. Curious ...

It took about six months for the jungle to kill Aaron Pomerantz’s microscope. An entomologist without a microscope is like an astronomer without a telescope, so Pomerantz needed a replacement. Ideally ...
