IN a recent paper 1 I derived formulæ expressing the distribution of light in the geometrical focal plane of optical systems of high relative aperture; and, using these formulæ, curves were given ...
Researchers at the University of California are working on a technology that is able to enhance the resolution of a standard light microscope, allowing it to directly view finer structures and details ...
The latest aberration-corrected electron microscopes can resolve individual atom columns in a silicon crystal that are just 78 pm apart. How many students are told, perhaps during their first science ...
