A microscope image of two exceptional threads of silk from the Australian net-caster spider has been announced as the winner of the Royal Society Publishing Photography Competition 2025. The ...

In quantum computing studies, precision optics play a pivotal role in experimental success. The long working distance (LWD) microscope objective lens is a key element in ion-trap quantum computers.

That anodized aluminum finish can be prone to scratches around the iPhone 17 Pro’s new camera plateau. That anodized aluminum finish can be prone to scratches around the iPhone 17 Pro’s new camera ...

This case study examines the high numerical aperture (NA) infinity conjugate long working distance microscope objective, suitable for precision applications such as optical tweezers. The microscope ...

I have a colleague who's using an Omax A35 camera with ToupLite software to make micrographs. The issue with it is that the ToupLite software is not very good; I suspect it's a half-hearted port of a ...

Ghost imaging is like a game of Battleship. Instead of seeing an object directly, scientists use entangled photons to remove the background and reveal its silhouette. This method can be used to study ...

For centuries, scientists have used microscopes to magnify and peer into a world invisible to the naked eye. The earliest instruments were simple lens-filled tubes, the best of which revealed the ...

Light microscopy is a cornerstone in life sciences technology, having experienced considerable diversification since its inception. This development becomes visible when considering the distinctive ...
