Neuroscientists have developed innovative objectives for light microscopy by using mirrors to produce images. Their design finds correspondence in mirror telescopes used in astronomy on the one hand ...

A microscope objective lens produces a real, magnified image of an object placed within the field of view. Before it is observed the image is then magnified again by the ocular lens, also known as the ...

A global leader in agricultural genetics sought durable, economical UV microscope objectives. Issues in meeting these objectives included optical design complexity, wavefront control, and fabrication ...

M Plan APO (Apochromat) Objective for NIR is an optimized optical system, with the flat and chromatic aberration free image over the entire field of view, with coating covers 532-1100nm. This series ...

Over on YouTube [Applied Science] shows us how to make an f/0.38 camera lens using an oil immersion microscope objective. The f-number of a lens indicates how well it will perform in low-light. To ...

IT is usually assumed that the depth of focus, t, of a well-corrected microscope objective is given by one or other of the following formulæ: where N is the refractive index of the medium through ...

Some species of mussels can see. Scallops, for example, have up to 200 eyes that help them detect predators such as an approaching starfish. However, the eyes of scallops differ significantly from the ...
