Microscopy technique could help make 3-D components
GAITHERSBURG, Md. – A technique developed several years ago to improve optical microscopes has now been applied to monitoring the next generation of computer chip circuit components, providing a crucial tool for developing 3-D components. Through-focus scanning optical microscopy (TSOM), developed by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), can detect minute differences – as small as 10 nm across, or perhaps smaller – in 3-D shapes of circuit components, which until ...
Microscopy Technique Could Help Make 3-D Components
GAITHERSBURG, Md., July 1, 2013 — A technique developed several years ago for improving optical microscopes has now been applied to monitoring the next generation of computer chip circuit components, providing a crucial tool for developing 3-D components.
Optical Microscope Detects Rare Cancer Cells
LOS ANGELES, July 9, 2012 — A new optical microscope that easily detects rare cells in real time could help doctors diagnose diseases earlier and could monitor disease treatments.
Companies Pen Software Agreement
Sep 1, 2011 — Carl Zeiss of Jena, Germany, and 3969%%Digital Surf of Besançon, France, have signed an agreement that enables the former company to provide the latter’s ConfoMap surface imaging and analysis software for use with Zeiss’ confocal...
Carl Zeiss, Digital Surf Pen Software Agreement
JENA, Germany, & BESANÇON, France, July 1, 2011 — Carl Zeiss and Digital Surf have signed an agreement that enables the former company to provide the latter’s ConfoMap surface imaging and analysis software for use with Zeiss’ confocal microscopes. The software includes numerous...
Holding onto a Pinch of Light
TEL AVIV, Israel, July 16, 2010 — A new tool developed by Tel Aviv University, Holographic Optical Tweezers (HOTs) use holographic technology to manipulate up to 300 nanoparticles at a time, such as beads of glass or polymer, that are too small and delicate to be handled with...
Closing in on Invisibility Cloak
BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 11, 2008 – The idea of an invisibility cloak certainly pushes the edge of plausible, however a group of scientists from the University of California, Berkeley, have come one step closer to being able to render objects invisible to the human eye. For the first...
FEI and Max Planck Collaborate on Correlative Microscopy
Aug 4, 2008 — FEI Co. of Hillsboro, Ore., a maker of high-resolution imaging and analysis systems, and Max Planck Institute (MPI) of Biochemistry in Martinsried, Germany, announced today their collaboration on a correlative microscopy solution that enables...
Laser Pas de Deux Enhances Resolution in Time and Space
Aug 1, 2008 — To completely grasp the physics underlying such phenomena as cellular function, chemicals changing from one state to another, or the formation of cracks and fissures in polymer thin films, one must watch such events as they occur, as close up as...
Confocal Microscopy Enables Direct Observation of Photonic Nanojets
Jul 1, 2008 — If you shine a beam of light onto a sphere just a few microns in diameter, an unusual effect takes place: On the side opposite where the beam strikes, a local field enhancement shaped like a tiny jet tail appears. Called photonic nanojets, these...
Microscope Slide Enables ~70-nm Resolution
Jun 1, 2007 — Conventional optical microscopes can resolve objects on the order of only 200 nm because they are limited by the diffraction of light waves, meaning that small things such as DNA and viruses cannot be seen. Although both scanning probe and electron...
Cornell Produces Brighter Dots
May 20, 2005 — ITHACA, N.Y., May 20 -- By surrounding fluorescent dyes with a protective silica shell, Cornell University researchers announced this week they have created fluorescent nanoparticles with possible applications in displays, biological imaging,...
Slower Growth Forecast for Optical Microscopes
Feb 1, 2005 — You can’t fight physics. Despite the continued and great advances made in optical microscopy over the more than 300 years since Antonie van Leeuwenhoek first presented his observations of bacteria in the Royal Society of England’s Philosophical...
Probes Enhance Microscopy
Feb 1, 2003 — Researchers at Max Planck Institut für Biochemie in Martinsried, Germany, have developed a probe design that improves the resolution of near-field scanning optical microscopes. The tip-on-aperture probes combine the benefits of aperture and...
TMC Donation Solves Unusual Vibration Problem
Jan 27, 2003 — PEABODY, Mass., Jan. 27 -- More than half a million annual visitors will soon be able to view the amazing development of live embryos at San Francisco's Exploratorium, thanks to two vibration isolation laboratory tables donated by Technical...
