But these microscopes produce black and white images, and that can make it difficult for researchers to focus on whatever specific parts of a cell they're most interested in. Ellisman and his ...

A white hole is thought to be the reverse of a black hole, expelling light and matter rather than absorbing them. Now, a team of researchers has designed a novel optical device with intriguing ...

A Taiwanese research team has achieved a significant breakthrough in optical microscopy, using chemical expansion to enlarge ...

Stitching the microspheres' images together with software could create unprecedented white-light photos. “We have broken the theoretical limits of optical microscopy in white light,” said ...

AT FIRST glance, this photo looks like a normal coloured picture of a group of teenagers - but it is actually an optical illusion as it is black and white. London-based digital artist Stuart ...

“Tiny sources of high harmonics should bring optical microscopy to a ... at things at this scale has been in the black and white world of electron microscopy. “High harmonic generation has ...

UK researchers have demonstrated the highest-resolution optical microscope ever - aided by ... a record for this kind of direct viewing with "white light" visible illumination.
