A burst of invisible light can do more than illuminate a surface. In a new study, Michigan State University researchers used ...

Analyzing magnetic nanostructures with a high resolution is a test-and-measurement challenge, but it’s important for both advanced physics insight as well as real-world products such as high-density ...

Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical components that enable super-resolution imaging, with each lens costing less ...

Researchers at University of California Davis (UC Davis) have designed a new laser-scanning approach to microscopy that is expected to open doors to brain-imaging in mouse models with improved speed ...

PI's new objective focusing stage excels in fast nano-focusing applications, such as DNA sequencing, laser-technology, wafer metrology, super-resolution microscopy, medical technology, and slide ...

A bright yellow pigment favored a century ago by Impressionists such as Matisse and Van Gogh is losing its luster. Researchers have developed a laser imaging technique that can detect the first tiny ...

Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

Researchers have demonstrated that consumer-grade 3D printers and inexpensive materials can produce advanced optical ...

Imaging live cells without disrupting their natural behavior or damaging their structures is one key challenge in biomedical optics, and has been tackled in multiple ways. A project at NIST has now ...
