Peking University, May 23, 2025: A collaboration between team led by Xi Peng, researcher from PKU College of Future Technology, and Qu Junle from Shenzhen University developed an innovative approach ...

Optical sectioning is the process by which a suitably designed microscope can produce clear images of focal planes deep within a thick sample. This is used to reduce the need for thin sectioning using ...

Genoa (Italy), July 24, 2025 – Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered ...

Researchers have incorporated a swept illumination source into an open-top light-sheet microscope to enable improved optical sectioning over a larger area of view. The advance makes the technique more ...

A project at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) has developed a method able to carry out simultaneous super-resolution imaging and optical sectioning in laser scanning microscopy. Described in ...

What is Structured Illumination Microscopy? Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM) is a super-resolution fluorescence microscopy technique that allows for imaging beyond the diffraction limit of ...

In the field of materials characterization, optical microscopy is one of the most commonly used imaging techniques. It is estimated that the diffraction limit of optical light is half of the ...

Zeiss Microscopy, Jena, Germany, a manufacturer of visible, electron, X-ray and ion microscope systems, has added two super-resolution microscopes to its structured illumination microscopy (SIM) range ...
