A team has constructed an improved mid-infrared microscope, enabling them to see the structures inside living bacteria at the nanometer scale. Mid-infrared microscopy is typically limited by its low ...
Scanning electron microscope image: Bacteria of the species Enterococcus faecalis (purple) attach to hyphae of the fungus Candida albicans (turquoise). Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...
Unlike almost every other kind of microscope, atomic-force microscopes (AFMs) don’t use any kind of optical beam to image ...
A team at the University of Tokyo have constructed an improved mid-infrared microscope, enabling them to see the structures inside living bacteria at the nanometer scale. Mid-infrared microscopy is ...
Grab your lab coat, or at least pretend you have one, and prepare to zoom way, way in because we're about to explore a world that's been hiding right under your nose this whole time. Ever wondered ...
When trying to measure molecular structures with nanometer precision, every bit of noise shows up in the data: someone walking past the microscope, tiny vibrations in the building and even the traffic ...
