Thomas Mulligan examines the cutting-edge imaging techniques that allow scientists to observe the strange behaviors and unseen structures of advanced matter. Watch America's 10,000-ton Navy destroyer ...

Today we're looking at Atomic Force Microscopy! I built a "macro-AFM" to demonstrate the principles of an atomic force microscope, then we look at a real AFM (an nGauge AFM from ICSPI) and do a few ...

Schematic of the imaging process. Incoherent light, modulated by the DMD, is directed into the microscope and focused onto the sample plane by the objective lens, creating structured illumination for ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell structures interacting in real time at an unprecedented 120-nanometer ...

Microscopy is an imaging technique that enables us to see a world that would otherwise be invisible to us. Once upon a time, visualizing cells, microbes and other entities not perceptible to the naked ...

Most amateurs don't know how to hit an intentional draw or fade with the driver. They try to hit every ball dead straight, which is by far the hardest shot to play. Of the three shots, the draw is the ...

How many photons are in a Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP)? More than you may have thought. The illumination required to excite fluorophores leads to their gradual photodegradation, a phenomenon known ...

A new dual-light microscope lets researchers observe micro- and nanoscale activity inside living cells without using dyes. The system captures both detailed structures and tiny moving particles at ...

Abstract: This tutorial provides a self-contained description of deep learning methodology for denoising, emphasizing aspects that are important in real-world scientific applications. The tutorial ...
