Here is an economical way to experiment with light, color, and optics. You get one Red LED light source, one Green LED light source, and one Blue LED light source. The three LEDs can be controlled ...

Two new microscopy techniques may enable better resolution from existing hardware and greater imaging depths if a different light source is used. We take a look at each of these in turn. Self ...

The EXFO X-Cite 120 fluorescent source has a light spectrum similar to that of conventional mercury lamps, but lasts much longer, providing a 1500-hr bulb life. Olympus Life and Material Science ...

The microscope is a specialized device known as a fluorescence microscope, which uses a light source to excite fluorescent molecules in a sample which can illuminate structures that would ...

Figure 1: Basic compound microscope: Light from a source is focused onto the sample (object) using a mirror and condenser lens. Light from the sample is collected by an objective, forming an ...

Light sources are accelerator-based machines that produce exceptionally intense, tightly focused beams of light, in the energy range from infrared to X-rays. ... Like “super microscopes,” light ...

An interdisciplinary academic team has successfully integrated quantum light sources and control electronics onto a single ...

An artist's impression of a quantum microscope Powerful microscopes have made a quantum leap. Using a quantum trick with light has allowed researchers to examine living cells in unprecedented ...

Researchers have incorporated a swept illumination source into an open-top light-sheet microscope to enable improved optical sectioning over a larger area of view. The advance makes the technique ...
