Zooming in: image of mouse embryo. (Courtesy: Gail McConnell/University of Strathclyde) A new microscope lens that offers the unique combination of a large field of view with high resolution has been ...

Attempts to break the diffraction limit with 'super lenses' have all hit the hurdle of extreme visual losses. Now physicists have shown a new pathway to achieve superlensing with minimal losses, ...

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: ...

Scientists used a new superlens technique to view an object just 0.15 millimetres wide using a virtual post-observation technique. The object ‘THZ’ (representing the ‘terahertz’ frequency of light ...

Physicists at the University of Sydney have developed a method to surpass the traditional diffraction limit by nearly four times without using a super lens. The new technique involves placing the ...
