    Lens free microscopy Microscopy whether electron microscopy or with visible light requires lenses. For electron microscopy, lenses incur significant design challenges and add aberrations. A startup in UK uses technology invented by Professor John Rodenberg to remove lenses altogether and compute the image from the diffraction pattern of the sample. This is similar to a…

  • Micro-Microscope

    Cell phone camera’s are small. However, typically microscopes are large bulky devices that have large lenses to collect light and are used for getting high resolution magnified images that are coupled to bulkier high sensitivity camera’s. But what about in-vivo microscopy where the animal needs to be brought below the microscope to focus. The laboratories…
