Optical microscopes work by beaming light onto a sample, but the photons in that light can be inherently random, creating noise in the images. The simplest way around that is to crank up the intensity ...

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

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 ...

Powerful microscopes have made a quantum leap. Using a quantum trick with light has allowed researchers to examine living cells in unprecedented detail without destroying them, a technique that could ...

Constructed with an LCD digital display, multiple lenses and XY stage plate navigation, the Celestron PentaView feels professional, enables specimens to be viewed by a large audience and is an ...

Linkam Scientific Instruments, a market leader in temperature-controlled microscopy, has reported on the use of its temperature-controlled stages for CLEM and fluorescence microscopy to assist in ...
