An interview with Ian Holland, discussing the differences in microscope cameras and how to determine which one is most suitable for specific pathology applications, conducted by James Ives (MPsych) ...

Calibration is the process of adjusting and verifying that an instrument, for example, an optical microscope, is taking measurements accurately by comparing them to a known measurement standard or ...

Conventional microscopes provide essential information about samples in two dimensions—the plane of the microscope slide. But flat is not all that. In many instances, information about the object in ...

Jewelers, geologists, and microscopists agree: diamonds are forever. Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are using microscopic nanodiamonds to calibrate and assess the ...

Measuring the volume, motion and contents of microscopic droplets is important for studying how airborne viruses spread (including those that cause Covid-19), how clouds reflect sunlight to cool the ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The drawbacks of existing measures for calibrating scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) based on various diffraction gratings and periodic ...

It’s a problem that few of us will ever face, but if you ever have to calibrate your scanning electron microscope, you’ll need a resolution target with a high contrast under an electron beam. This ...
