Infrared microscopy involves the examination of small samples, usually within the 10 to 100 μm range. Spatial resolution becomes a significant concern on the scale. The infrared light's relatively ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the 17th-century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and sperm cells ...

Today's super-resolution microscopes have made it possible to observe the nanoscale world with unprecedented detail. However, they require fluorescent tags, which reveal structural details but provide ...

Fluorescence light microscopy techniques offer several advantages when imaging biological samples, including high image contrast, good labeling specificity, multicolor, and three dimensional (3D) ...
