  2. David A Muller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_A_Muller

    David Muller is a named Professor in the School of Applied and Engineering Physics at Cornell University and co-director of the Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science. [1] He is known for his work in electron microscopy, condensed matter physics, and discovery of atomic structure across a wide range of materials including applications ...

  3. Super-resolution microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super-resolution_microscopy

    Through the microscope, nanoparticles look like symmetric round spots. The spot width is equivalent to the point spread function (~ 250 nm) and is defined by the microscope resolution. Lateral coordinates of the given particle can be evaluated with a precision much higher than the resolution of the microscope.

  4. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-resolution...

    High-resolution transmission electron microscopy is an imaging mode of specialized transmission electron microscopes that allows for direct imaging of the atomic structure of samples. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is a powerful tool to study properties of materials on the atomic scale, such as semiconductors, metals, nanoparticles and sp 2 -bonded carbon (e.g ...

    1957: Marvin Minsky, a professor at MIT, invents the confocal microscope, an optical imaging technique for increasing optical resolution and contrast of a micrograph by means of using a spatial pinhole to block out-of-focus light in image formation. This technology is a predecessor to today's widely used confocal laser scanning microscope.

  6. Scanning electron microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_electron_microscope

    An account of the early history of scanning electron microscopy has been presented by McMullan. [2] [3] Although Max Knoll produced a photo with a 50 mm object-field-width showing channeling contrast by the use of an electron beam scanner, [4] it was Manfred von Ardenne who in 1937 invented [5] a microscope with high resolution by scanning a very small raster with a demagnified and finely ...

    In 2012 it was also shown that electron ptychography could improve on the resolution of an electron lens by a factor of five, [57] a method which was used in 2018 to provide the highest-resolution transmission image ever obtained [27] earning a Guinness world record, [58] and once again in 2021 to achieve an even better resolution.

    By Keith Morrison Taking the phrase of "putting it under the microscope" quite literally, the Nikon Small World contest recently announced its winners for 2014. Now in its 40th year, the contest ...

  9. Phase-contrast imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-contrast_imaging

    Phase-contrast imaging is the highest resolution imaging technique ever developed, and can allow for resolutions of less than one angstrom (less than 0.1 nanometres). It thus enables the direct viewing of columns of atoms in a crystalline material.
