In this study, we introduce Adaptive Optics to confocal Raman microscopy for the first time to counteract such aberrations, significantly increasing the Raman signal and image quality. The method is ...

Often referred to as field scopes or digiscopes, they bridge the gap between a monocular and a telescope, offering impressive magnifications ... from affordable entry-level models to premium optics ...

The Giant Magellan Telescope will deliver up to 200 times the resolution and sensitivity of today's leading telescopes, offering unprecedented power for astronomical discovery. Unique among the new ...
