Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete ...

Behold, the world’s fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it’s the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. This is a potentially ...

You can tell a lot about a material based on the type of light shining at it: Optical light illuminates a material's surface, ...

Caltech scientists have created a quantum microscope that taps into the quirky quantum rules to see tiny details much more clearly. Using pairs of entangled photons allows the instrument to double the ...

The implications of the breakthrough could ripple through multiple industries. A better understanding of how superconductivity behaves at quantum scales could accelerate the development of ...

A pair of strong binoculars brings far-away objects much closer, letting you examine them from a safe distance. But there is an entirely different world when you look closely at the smallest creatures ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. In recent times, there have been leaps and bounds with the kind of microscopes available to us, such as AI-powered microscopes that can help ...

The intricate, hidden processes that sustain coral life are being revealed through a new microscope developed by scientists at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The diver-operated ...
