A new software-based tool fits onto a microscope like a pair of goggles, allowing a scientist to measure a broad number of physical parameters in the Petri dish while investigating fat cells. They ...

Researchers developed a new smartphone-based digital holographic microscope that enables precision 3D measurements. The highly portable and inexpensive microscope could help bring 3D measurement ...

Within a modest engineering laboratory at Duke University, a new type of researcher is quietly at work next to an optical microscope. This new researcher has no need for coffee, does not become tired, ...

The project was carried out by researchers from the Universities of Göttingen and Münster, who set out to improve access to high-resolution microscopes that are typically too expensive and fragile for ...

3D optical microscope is a key metrology technique used in a myriad of industries. White light interferometry (WLI) and confocal microscopy or laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) are the other ...
