When selecting a microscope, it’s important to consider various features, such as the field of view, frame construction, lighting, optical quality and resolution. There are several types of ...

into a fully functional optical microscope. “This opens the doors to democratized access, rapid prototyping, and bespoke design of microscopes and optics at a fraction of the price of traditional ...

These optical clocks are still being assessed, but already now, some are 100 times more accurate than cesium clocks. They will therefore become the future basis for the worldwide definition of the ...

Abstract: Recently appeared OAM-based interferometers have high requirements on the quality of vortex beam and system calibration, otherwise, the rotational symmetry interferogram will be destroyed. A ...

Researchers have now used the technology to build a fully functioning optical microscope for just $60. Researchers at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, built the microscope using ...

The OpenFlexture Microscope is a DIY, open-source, 3D-printed microscope built around the Raspberry Pi 4, a Raspberry Pi Camera Module v2, and a choice of optics or various qualities up to lab-grade ...

Researchers have designed and built the world’s first microscope made entirely from 3D-printed parts. And because the open-source plans are already available online, almost anyone can assemble ...

The world’s first fully 3D-printed microscope can be made in a few hours and for a fraction of the cost of traditional ones. “It’s not just enabling, it’s empowering,” says Gail ...

Abstract: In this paper, an in-field and low-complexity calibration scheme based on cross-power-spectrum (CPS) analysis for in-phase and quadrature (IQ) imperfections of coherent optical transceivers ...
