2. Optical resolution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_resolution

   Also common in the microscopy literature is a formula for resolution that treats the above-mentioned concerns about contrast differently. [2] The resolution predicted by this formula is proportional to the Rayleigh-based formula, differing by about 20%. For estimating theoretical resolution, it may be adequate.

3. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

   Optical microscope. The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

4. Resolution (structural biology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolution_(structural...

   Resolution in the context of structural biology is the ability to distinguish the presence or absence of atoms or groups of atoms in a biomolecular structure. Usually, the structure originates from methods such as X-ray crystallography, electron crystallography, or cryo-electron microscopy. The resolution is measured of the "map" of the ...

5. Super-resolution microscopy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super-resolution_microscopy

   Super-resolution microscopy is a series of techniques in optical microscopy that allow such images to have resolutions higher than those imposed by the diffraction limit, [1][2] which is due to the diffraction of light. [3] Super-resolution imaging techniques rely on the near-field (photon-tunneling microscopy [4] as well as those that use the ...

6. Microscopy - Wikipedia

   Microscopy. Scanning electron microscope image of pollen (false colors) Microscopic examination in a biochemical laboratory. Microscopy is the technical field of using microscopes to view objects and areas of objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye (objects that are not within the resolution range of the normal eye).

7. Diffraction-limited system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction-limited_system

   In optics, any optical instrument or system – a microscope, telescope, or camera – has a principal limit to its resolution due to the physics of diffraction. An optical instrument is said to be diffraction-limited if it has reached this limit of resolution performance. Other factors may affect an optical system's performance, such as lens ...
