Abstract: As semiconductor technology advances, chips are becoming increasingly smaller, leading to a growing demand for higher yield rates. As a result, defect detection has become a critical area of ...

It’s officially time to start checking gifts off your list before it’s too late. For my 2025 tech gift guide, I’m recommending technology products that I’ve actually used all year. Each of these ...

This paper presents an important advance in genetically encoded voltage imaging of the developing zebrafish spinal cord in vivo, capturing voltage dynamics in neuronal populations, single cells, and ...

Through the lens of a microscope, even a dirty windowsill can hold some of nature’s tiniest treasures. A staged snapshot of a rice weevil spreading its wings on a grain of rice won first place in the ...

The list of winners for this year’s Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition has finally been released, and the contest’s talented photographers once again wow viewers with fantastical images of ...

From self-pollinating flowers to single-celled organisms dancing inside a coin, the 15th Nikon Small World in Motion winners reveal an entirely hidden universe – one that is as scientifically ...

Abstract: The morphological changes of corneal structures captured by corneal confocal microscopy (CCM), such as corneal nerves, Langerhans cells, stromal cells, etc., are closely related to various ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

An approach is described for measuring hydration-induced volume change within ion conductive polymer membranes and thin films by adapting the technique of confocal Raman microscopy. With careful ...
