Like our eyes, microscopes are limited in what they can see because of their resolution, or their ability to see detail. The detail, or information, from the object is there, but some of it gets lost ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from Humboldt University and the Experimental and Clinical Research Center (ECRC) built the first infrared based microscope with quantum light. By deliberately entangling ...

Add one more thing to the list of tasks your smartphone can perform. University of Houston researchers have released an open-source dataset offering instructions to people interested in building their ...

A group of young students has built a high-resolution microscope solely out of LEGO pieces and a smartphone lens. The fully functional, high-resolution microscope with capabilities close to a modern ...

A microscope that cost less than £50 and took under 3 hours to build using a common 3D printer could be transformative for ...

It is a truth universally acknowledged that if you make something out of Lego, kids will want to play with it. This is a truth that Timo Betz, a biophysicist at the University of Göttingen, tapped ...

Where most people see a stack of Legos, UCSF researcher Harrison Liu, sees the building blocks of science. In fact, his team at the university's Mission Bay campus used piles of them to construct ...

Like our eyes, microscopes are limited in what they can see because of their resolution, or their ability to see detail. The detail, or information, from the object is there, but some of it gets lost ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists at IBM Research made a breakthrough in controlling the quantum behavior of individual atoms, demonstrating a versatile new building block for quantum computation. In a paper ...

Fermions are the building blocks of matter, interacting in a multitude of permutations to give rise to the elements of the periodic table. Without fermions, the physical world would not exist.

In a sunny third-floor office at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus in Ashburn, Virginia, Philipp Keller is showing off the optics for his latest microscope. They’re not ...
