BELLINGHAM, Wash., Dec. 28, 2020 — Researchers at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) have developed a phase-reliant method of synthetic aperture microscopy (SAM). The method, introduced as “high spatial and temporal resolution synthetic aperture phase microscopy,” or “HISTR-SAPM,” features a setup of digital micromirror devices (DMDs) — electronic components commonly used in digital projectors …

New Illinois ECE research is advancing the field of optical microscopy, giving the field a critical new tool to solve challenging problems across many fields of science and engineering including semiconductor wafer inspection, nanoparticle sensing, material characterization, biosensing, virus counting, and microfluidic monitoring. The question is often asked, “Why can we not see or …

Enlarge / A copper oxide mineral’s crystals look out of this world at high magnification. Covering the news means that most of what you do is new. While you may revisit a topic, it typically only happens after something about that topic has changed. Nevertheless, fall science coverage has a certain familiarity. First, there’s the …

Structural Illumination super-resolution microscopy (SIM) images of mitotic chromosomes from human cells, showing rDNA-linked chromosomes. rDNA was labeled with rDNA probe and UBF antibody (green and red). Both rDNA and UBF form filamentous connections between chromosomes. Credit: Gerton Lab. Thanks to super-resolution microscopy, scientists have now been able to unambiguously identify physical associations between human …
