Oxford Instruments’ Raman imaging team announces a refreshed core microscope line and a groundbreaking new spectrometer: Hexalight. Together, the witec360 microscope and Hexalight spectrometer ...

Scientists create microscopic gears powered by light, a breakthrough for chip-scale machines—promising, but still far from practical use.

Buried deep in the south Georgia rolling hills, a tiny archaeological site has been rewriting history. Uncovered in the late 1950s, the Kvemo Bolnisi workshop was considered to be one of the ...

In honor of BYU’s 150th anniversary, electrical engineering professor Greg Nordin and student Callum Galloway have created 150 microscopic replicas of existing LDS temples, all on a 12-by-19 ...

Research from Cranfield University sheds new light onto the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, showing how experimentation with iron-rich rocks by copper smelters may have sparked the ...

Fluorescent proteins can be turned into qubits within cells and could give us a deeper understanding of biology at the nanoscale level.

Oxford Instruments’ Raman imaging team has announced a new core microscope line and a spectrometer called Hexalight. Together, the witec360 microscope and Hexalight spectrometer constitute an advanced ...

While trying to examine forces on single biomolecules with great precision, researchers have solved their requirement of a dual trap optical tweezers system by inventing their own version of the ...

How a brain's anatomical structure relates to its function is one of the most important questions in neuroscience. It explores how physical components, such as neurons and their connections, give rise ...

Researchers at the University of Stuttgart have created an “optical sieve” capable of detecting minute nanoplastic particles. Functioning much like a test strip, this innovation is designed to provide ...
