Researchers at Caltech have developed a miniature microscope system that enables imaging without the use of lenses or optics and may be relatively inexpensive to mass-produce. The future of microscopy ...

physorg – Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have turned science fiction into reality with their development of a super-compact high-resolution microscope, small enough to fit on a ...

Oh, the wonderful and mind-twisting world of quantum mechanics. However, in order to harness the magic-like potential of bending qubits to one’s will, there is a whole lot of nitty gritty engineering ...

OPTICAL microscopes used to be bulky instruments. Their basic components – lenses to magnify and focus an image – take up a lot of space, and are fragile and expensive to boot. Not any more.

University researchers have developed a high-resolution microscope that is small enough to sit on a computer chip. The tiny microscope has the magnifying power of a top-quality optical microscope and ...

The US has installed a custom-made electron microscope that has the potential to transform future research into battery technology, semiconductors, quantum computing and advanced materials. The new ...
