Electron microscope technique achieves sub-Ångström resolution with lower cost and energy
A team of researchers at the University of Victoria (UVic) have achieved an advance in electron microscopy that will allow scientists to visualize atomic-scale structures with unprecedented clarity ...
A new type of super-resolution optical microscopy takes a high-resolution image (at right) of graphite "nanoplatelets" about 100 nanometers wide. The imaging system, called saturated transient ...
For the past 50 years, electron optics engineers have sought to improve the precision of electron microscopes by counteracting the image blurring effects of lens imperfections, or ‘aberrations’. To ...
Swiss researchers have developed a very-high-resolution x-ray microscope. Their approach combines two well-known microscopy techniques, coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) and scanning transmission ...
The development of STED microscopy has allowed researchers at the Max- Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry to image, for the first time, proteins from single synaptic vesicles, answering ...

Standard 3D printers enable super-resolution microscopy with custom optics under $1
Researchers have demonstrated that consumer-grade 3D printers and inexpensive materials can produce advanced optical ...
Electron microscopy has allowed scientists to see individual atoms, but even at that resolution not everything is clear. A team of researchers from both Cornell and the University of Chicago have ...
The Epson DC-21 will be available to classrooms in February. Epson has introduced a new document camera with a microscope adapter that allows it to create magnified laboratory images and enhanced HD ...
This story originally featured on Popular Science. A journey that began nearly a century ago, when scientists invented the first electron microscope, has taken yet another step. “This is the ...
