Fraunhofer researchers have developed a very fast technology for determining whether a tumor has been fully removed—before the patient even leaves the operating theater. Using a combination of laser ...

Scanning tunneling microscopes capture images of materials with atomic precision and can be used to manipulate individual molecules or atoms. Researchers have been using the instruments for many years ...

Physicists at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have designed a framework that allows scientists to observe interactions between light and electrons using a traditional scanning ...

I built a 3D printed, scanning laser confocal microscope so I could collect 3D surface topology and profilometry data! The ...

The exact birth of the scanning microscope principle is not clear, as the work of numerous scientists contributed to its inception. However, it is generally accepted that the first scanning microscope ...

Since the first transmission electron microscope was sold in 1935, microscopes that use electrons--rather than light waves--to image objects have brought into focus levels of detail that were ...

In this study, we integrate a single-photon detector array into a confocal laser scanning microscope, enabling the combination of fluorescence-lifetime single-molecule localization microscopy with ...

Blu-rays never quite managed to usurp DVDs entirely. Recent estimates, based on data gathered by Nielsen VideoScan and MediaPlayNews, suggest that as of Q2 2022, DVDs still controlled 51.4 percent of ...

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The global two-photon laser scanning confocal microscope market is poised to grow by USD 144 million during 2019-2023, progressing at a CAGR of almost 3% during the forecast ...

The ability to rapidly change the focal plane of an optical imaging system is of great interest in microscopy, computer vision, and laser machining. Traditionally, re-focusing has been achieved by ...

The Intel i486 might be over 30 years old, but it's still an incredible piece of technology. Especially when viewed up close ...

Physicists have designed a framework that allows scientists to observe interactions between light and electrons using a traditional scanning electron microscope. The procedure is considerably cheaper ...
