Versatility and miniaturization of imaging systems are of great importance in today's information society. Microscopic imaging techniques have always been indispensable for scientific research and ...

Dear Dr. Roach: My integrative medicine M.D. habitually takes a blood sample from the earlobe, puts it on a slide and looks at cell activity/quality using dark-field microscopy. The findings are ...

Researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) have unveiled a planar optical device that ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new dark-field imaging technique that does not require specialized microscope ...

Freshly dissected tissue (lower left) and its pathology-prepared slide with identified tumor regions by a pathologist (upper left), and a pseudo-color image of hyperspectral dark-field microscopy ...

It might seem like a paradox that you want a dark field to see things with an expensive microscope. As [IMSAI Guy] explains, a dark field microscope doesn’t make the subject dark. It makes the area ...

Crystalline materials are ubiquitous and include most metals, ceramics, semiconductors, rocks, ice, sand, bones and many artefacts of artistic and archaeological interest. They tend to be composed of ...

A paper by Kazan Federal University has recently been published in Environmental Pollution. Artificial polymer materials are omnipresent today. They are employed in fabrication of various appliances, ...

Chinese researchers have developed a planar photonic chip with tailored angular transmission to obtain high-contrast optical microscopic images. Researchers from the University of Science and ...
