McMaster University unveils world's most advanced microscope
The most advanced and powerful electron microscope on the planet-capable of unprecedented resolution-has been installed in the new Canadian Centre for Electron Microscopy at McMaster University. view more (2008-10-21)
New imaging method lets scientists 'see' cell molecules more clearly
Scientists have always wanted to take a closer look at biological systems and materials. From the magnifying glass to the electron microscope, they have developed ever-increasingly sophisticated imaging devices. view more (2009-01-21)
Potential leap forward in electron microscopy
MIT electrical engineers have proposed a new scheme that can overcome a critical limitation of high-resolution electron microscopes: they cannot be used to image living cells because the electrons destroy the samples. view more (2009-10-07)
Groundbreaking Superstem Microscope Opened At Daresbury Laboratory
The science minister, Lord Sainsbury, will today open the highest resolution analytical microscope in the world at the CCLRC Daresbury Laboratory in Cheshire. The SuperSTEM (Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope) project is directed by Professor Peter Goodhew at Liverpool University and involves other scientists from the Universities of... view more...

New light microscope may help unlock some of cells' secrets
A microscopy technique pioneered with the help of Florida State University's National High Magnetic Field Laboratory has led to the development of a new light microscope capable of looking at proteins on a molecular level. view more (2006-08-17)
First high-resolution images of bone, tooth and shell formation
Researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) have for the first time made high-resolution images of the earliest stages of bone formation. They used the world's most advanced electron microscope to make three-dimensional images of the nano-particles that are at the heart of the process. view more (2009-03-13)
UC Santa Barbara researchers light up 'dark' spins in diamond
Researchers at UC Santa Barbara have potentially opened up a new avenue toward room temperature quantum information processing. By demonstrating the ability to image and control single isolated electron spins in diamond, they unexpectedly discovered a new channel for transferring information to other surrounding spins - an initial step towards... view more...

Superlubricant effect explained using new friction force sensor
Research conducted in the Netherlands has revealed a previously unknown effect in graphite. The discovery was made by Martin Dienwiebel using the Tribolever, a highly-sensitive friction force microscope which he had developed himself. Dienwiebel has termed the effect superlubrication and this effect probably explains why graphite is such a good... view more... (2003-04-11)
Nowhere to hide -- new ultra-powerful microscope probes atomic world
A unique electron microscope, the first of its kind in the world, was unveiled yesterday at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory in Warrington. view more (2008-01-25)
Nano-sediment highways in catalyst
Dutch chemists have visualised how the porous structure of a zeolite catalyst depends on the production method. Zeolite made with carbon fibres as a template, has particles with straight canals that act as highways for the oil components which must be converted into benzene components. Zeolite is normally given a steam treatment to improve its... view more... (2003-03-21)
NIST studies how new helium ion microscope measures up
Just as test pilots push planes to explore their limits, researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are probing the newest microscope technology to further improve measurement accuracy at the nanoscale. view more (2008-09-05)
Nanoscale dimensioning is fast, cheap with new NIST optical technique
A novel technique under development at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) uses a relatively inexpensive optical microscope to quickly and cheaply analyze nanoscale dimensions with nanoscale measurement sensitivity. view more (2008-10-30)
Wellcome Trust grant to investigate degenerative brain diseases known as `tauopathies`
Dr Julian Thorpe, head of the Electron Microscopy Lab at the University of Sussex, will be working towards a better understanding of degenerative brain diseases thanks to a £247,000 grant from the Wellcome Trust. He is taking a very close look at a possible contributory cause of nerve cell death in a group of conditions related to... view more... (2002-04-17)
Modified electron microscope identifies atoms
A new electron microscope recently installed in Cornell's Duffield Hall is enabling scientists for the first time to form images that uniquely identify individual atoms in a crystal and see how those atoms bond to one another. And in living color. view more (2008-02-22)
By color-coding atoms, new Cornell electron microscope promises big advance in materials analysis
A new electron microscope recently installed in Cornell's Duffield Hall is enabling scientists for the first time to form images that uniquely identify individual atoms in a crystal and see how those atoms bond to one another. And in living color. view more (2008-02-22)
Free Electronic Microscopes for Primary Schools
Every maintained primary school will get a free digital microscope as part of Science Year, Schools Minister Catherine Ashton announced today. The microscope forms the second instalment of the ‘Kit Pot’ fund which offers science teachers equipment to inspire young people in the classroom. view more (2002-01-09)
A virtual atlas of breast histopathology: An application of web based virtual microscopy
Researchers at the universities of Helsinki and Tampere (Finland) have developed a new virtual microscopy system, which allows users digitize entire microscope glass slide specimens, and then create a virtual slide with the quality and resolution similar to the original glass slide viewed on a microscope. The results are high-resolution digital... view more... (2004-11-26)
Breaking the nanometer barrier in X-ray microscopy
Argonne National Laboratory scientists in collaboration with Xradia have created a new X-ray microscope technique capable of observing molecular-scale features, measuring less than a nanometer in height. view more (2006-11-10)
Delft University of Technology rotates electron spin with electric field
Researchers at the Delft University of Technology's Kavli Institute of Nanoscience and the Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (FOM) have succeeded in controlling the spin of a single electron merely by using electric fields. view more (2007-11-02)
Asian Breakthrough for Swedish Nanotech Company
Nanofactory Instruments, a spin-off company from Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, has recently had a breakthrough in Asia. Through two very prestigious contracts from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Beijing University, both world leading nanotech research centres, the Swedish nanotech start-up... view more...
