Ghost imaging is like a game of Battleship. Instead of seeing an object directly, scientists use entangled photons to remove the background and reveal its silhouette. This method can be used to study ...

Researchers have demonstrated that consumer-grade 3D printers and inexpensive materials can produce advanced optical ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Researchers in Purdue University’s College of Engineering are developing patented and patent-pending innovations that make 3D microscopes faster to operate and less expensive to ...

Innovation brings 3D-nanometer precision to bio-imaging instrument. − Nature is three-dimensional, so it has to be studied and viewed in 3D, says Professor Edward Hæggström from the Electronics ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Researchers have designed and built the world’s first microscope ...

A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

Microscopes are an important tool in biomedical research as it allows for detailed observation and imaging of tissues. Since biological materials are opaque by their nature, severe light scattering ...

Australian researchers from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale BioPhotonics (CNBP) have developed a 3D-printable "clip-on" that turns a smartphone into a fully functional microscope. Reported ...

Desktop microscopes can be extremely expensive, especially when you go for larger magnifications. One interesting 3D printing mod has used the frame and a 3D printed fitting to create a desktop Ender ...

Liming Chen, who will earn his PhD in mechanical engineering from Purdue in May 2024, operates a 3D microscope, which uses an optical technique called fringe projection to create a high-resolution 3D ...
