But unlocking these extreme wavelengths opens up a potential way to get past the resolution barrier that caps optical microscopes at a maximum magnification of about 1,000 times. While the optics ...

Microscopes have long been scientists’ eyes into the unseen, revealing everything from bustling cells to viruses and nanoscale structures. However, even the most powerful optical microscopes have been ...

Researchers designed a computational framework that consists of a compact metalens-integrated microscope and a transformer-based neural network, which enables large FOV and subpixel resolution imaging ...

Introduction to SNOM: The Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM) stands as a pivotal analytical tool in nanotechnology, enabling the visualization of nanostructures with resolution beyond the ...

(Nanowerk News) In the quest to image exceedingly small structures and phenomenon with higher precision, scientists have been pushing the limits of optical microscope resolution, but these advances ...

Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (STORM) reconstructs a super-resolution fluorescence image by combining precise localization information for individual fluorophores in complex fluorescent ...

Integrating deep learning in optical microscopy enhances image analysis, overcoming traditional limitations and improving classification and segmentation tasks.

Due to the nature of light, a traditional optical microscope can be employed to attain a maximum magnification of around 800–1000x. For further magnification, scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) can ...
