Scientists have introduced a microscopy technique that reveals a hidden layer of chemistry involving molecules that normally ...

With a new microscope that's as light as a penny, researchers can now observe broad swaths of the brain in action as mice move about and interact with their environments. As a mouse explores its ...

A new AI model generates realistic synthetic microscope images of atoms, providing scientists with reliable training data to accelerate materials research and atomic scale analysis. (Nanowerk ...

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 ...

The challenge: seeing atoms without freezing the budgetOptical-coupled scanning probe microscopes (OC-SPM) can visualize individual atoms and probe ...

While probing single molecules or atoms typically requires liquid helium—a costly resource—to build a stable environment, a new development from a joint Chinese research team changes the game. By ...

William & Mary art students studying scale got to see every aspect of tiny objects writ large as they learned to use the scanning electron microscope in the Small Hall Makerspace. The idea was to ...

A research team at the University of Tokyo has built a fluorescence microscopy system that can detect fleeting magnetic ...

As a mouse explores its environment, millions of neurons across the brain fire in sync. To study only a small subsection at a time would be to miss the forest for the trees, but powerful microscopes ...
