When measuring with light, the lateral extent of the structures that can be resolved by an optical imaging system is fundamentally diffraction limited. Overcoming this limitation is a topic of great ...

It’s been a long-held assumption that the human eye is capable of detecting a maximum of 60 pixels per degree (PPD), which is commonly called ‘retinal’ resolution. Any more than that, and you’d be ...

Researchers have developed an innovative method to simultaneously track rapid dynamic processes of multiple molecules at the molecular scale. Researchers at LMU have developed an innovative method to ...

Nevertheless, advanced applications, such as single-electron transistors, single-photon emitters (SPE), single-atom memory, or quantum-bit devices, require higher manufacturing spatial resolution ...

What is the Diffraction Limit? The diffraction limit is a fundamental barrier in optical microscopy that sets the minimum size of features that can be resolved using conventional light microscopes. It ...

Is your ultra-high-definition television really worth it? Do you need a 4K or an 8K screen to get the best viewing experience at home? According to researchers at the University of Cambridge and Meta ...
