Reflection-contrast microscopy is a type of light microscopy that can be used to analyze single cells, biopsies, and other small objects. In contrary to most light microscopy techniques, ...

Discover the science behind seeing your reflection in water. Light travels in straight lines and bounces off smooth surfaces, ...

Brightfield microscopy has been widely used for hundreds of years, while reflection contrast microscopy is relatively new technology. As one of the earliest and simplest microscopy techniques, ...

Researchers demonstrate a new technique for suppressing back reflections of light, leading to better signal quality for sensing and information technology. Researchers demonstrate a new technique for ...

Light is often thought to reflect from a flat surface at the same angle at which it is incident. Nature Photonics spoke to Han Woerdman about the observation of angular deviations of reflected beams.

Researchers demonstrate a new technique for suppressing back reflections of light, leading to better signal quality for sensing and information technology. Microresonators are small glass structures ...

For more than 50 years, scientists theorized that an electromagnetic wave could be reflected temporally—not just spatially. Scientists have been unable to confirm the existence of time reflection due ...
