Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopes: Capabilities and Applications
NSOM techniques and instrumentation have evolved to become vital tools for material characterization, providing high-quality data and continually expanding utility, spot-on accuracy, adaptability, and exceptionally high definition. This article examines apertured and apertureless NSOM equipment and techniques: how they are achieved, what information they can provide, and applications in which they excel.

Imaging Without Limit, on Demand
A team at Columbia University has introduced a way to program a layered crystal in such a way that it is able to open doors to imaging capabilities beyond common limits, on demand. The technique exerts control over nanolight — light that is able to access the nanoscale — providing insight into the field of optical quantum information processing.

Diagnostic Solution, Powered by Microfluidic Chip, Leads to Inexpensive Hemoglobin Measurements
SigTuple Technologies and the Indian Institute of Science demonstrated an AI-powered, imaging-based tool for the estimation of hemoglobin levels. The setup combines a microfluidic chip and an AI-enabled microscope designed for deriving the total, as well as differential counts, of blood cells. The method uses a microfluidic chip and reagent, costing less than $0.14, as well as a detector in the form of a conventional microscopy camera.
