They used polarized light microscopy to observe the transition from disordered states to partially ordered and then fully ordered liquid crystalline phases. Cryogenic electron microscopy provided high ...

In an elegant fusion of art and science, researchers at Rice University have achieved a major milestone in nanomaterials engineering by uncovering how boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs)—touted for their ...

Doubling down on metasurfaces: Bilayer device can control many forms of polarized light by Anne J. Manning, Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences Editors' notes ...

The microscope combines polarized fluorescence technology, a valuable tool for measuring the orientation of molecules, with a dual-view light sheet microscope (diSPIM), which excels at imaging along ...

With traditional microscopy, including polarized light, you can study the spindle quite nicely if it's in the plane perpendicular to the viewing direction. As soon as the plane is tilted, the ...
