Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which garnered a Nobel Prize in 1953, brought into clear view structures inside ...

Harnessing the focal length dispersion in a metalens, we have developed a volumetric imaging technique that encodes depth into spectrum. The method is non-interferometric since the phase is computed ...

X-ray phase contrast imaging harnesses the phase shift that X-rays undergo when traversing a specimen, offering contrast mechanisms beyond simple absorption. By detecting refraction and ...

Installed in a custom Titan Krios, the laser phase plate enhances motion correction, early‑frame recovery, and 3D classification and alignment.

In a landmark achievement in biological imaging, researchers at the University of California, Berkeley and Biohub today announced the successful demonstration of the laser phase plate, a novel device ...

A study from the University of California, Los Angeles, published in Advanced Photonics introduces a cutting-edge approach to 3D Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI) using a wavelength-multiplexed ...

Techniques that exploit the phase of X-rays, not just their absorption, have the potential to transform X-ray imaging in hospitals, reports Jude Dineley Improved imaging Marian Willner from the ...

A new microscope method reveals details that were difficult to see before, helping researchers study proteins, cells, and ...

Researchers at the University of Warsaw's Faculty of Physics with colleagues from Stanford University and Oklahoma State University have introduced a quantum-inspired phase-imaging method based on ...

A computer-assisted design schematic showing how an electron beam is routed within a microscope. After going through the sample, it crosses a bright cyan beam representing the laser beam. A schematic ...
