It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

Working on the nanoscale for manufacturing poses some unique challenges. While many macroscale manufacturing methods such as lithography and additive manufacturing have been successfully translated ...

Interferometric scattering (iSCAT) microscopy, on the other hand, exploits back-scattered light and can detect structures as small as single proteins. As such, it can be used to "track" single ...
