SIMIP enables high-resolution images rich in both chemical and spatial information. A quantum cascade laser (QCL) excites molecular vibrations while a spatial light modulator (SLM) generates striped ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Quantitative phase imaging is a powerful, non-invasive and quantitative microscopy technique that allows multi-scale imaging of cellular systems, explain Mustafa Mir and Gabriel Popescu Imaging by ...

What is the Diffraction Limit? The diffraction limit is a fundamental barrier in optical microscopy that sets the minimum size of features that can be resolved using conventional light microscopes. It ...

What is Photoactivated Localization Microscopy? Photoactivated Localization Microscopy (PALM) is a super-resolution imaging technique that allows for the visualization of biological structures at the ...
