Validating samples is a time consuming and expensive process when trying to track down defects and reasons for semiconductor failures. Optical microscopes were used to examine samples after each ...

The saying goes, “Lightning never strikes the same place twice.” But what's in a saying? Dr. Eric Betzig recently showed creating one revolutionary new microscope doesn’t mean he can’t create another.

The first microscopes, in the 1500s and 1600s, transformed glass panes that looked completely transparent into a universe teeming with bacteria, cells, pollen and intricate crystals. These visionary ...

The ZDM Digital Video Microscope is a research grade video microscope system that can be completely powered by a laptop computer. The 2 megapixel color camera provides four times the resolution of a ...

Researchers at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering have demonstrated that deep learning, a powerful form of artificial intelligence, can discern and enhance microscopic details in photos taken by ...

Recent advances in microscopy methods have enabled visualization of “known” molecular processes in action. In 1881, a time when anthrax killed millions of animals each year, Louis Pasteur hypothesized ...

Smartphones can take your pulse, monitor your mental health, keep track of your diet, analyze your sleep cycle and help control your diabetes. Now, a new smartphone technology can spot parasites in ...
