A “walk” along the electromagnetic spectrum—heading toward smaller wavelengths—leads from the visible red to violet, through the ultraviolet and then to X-rays. Read More

Biological microscopy is benefitting from advances in technologies, software, and equipment at a rate that is allowing researchers to see even deeper, and more clearly, into the dynamics of living cells—the subtlest details and processes that define... Read More

To analyze materials, scientists often use spectroscopy. Read More

More data and opportunities—as well as expectations—make up today’s focus of analyzing images from microscopy. Read More

It’s not just what you can see in microscopy, but what you can touch and feel. Read More

Super-resolution microscopy encompasses several new techniques for direct spatiotemporal imaging of structural features much smaller than the diffraction limit of light (about 100 nm). Read More

To understand the properties of a material, scientists often examine it with an electron microscope, sometimes using different levels of magnification. Read More
