New Type of Microscope Offers Possibilities for Drug Discovery

Using a new type of microscope, doctors may now be able to get a better idea of how safely and efficiently a pill will perform in the body. Researchers at Purdue University built the microscope founded on concepts of phase-contrast microscopy, which requires using optical devices to see membranes, molecules, or other nanoscale items that may be too translucent to distribute the light involved with conventional microscopes.

Researchers Manage to Control Very Short-Wavelength Spin Waves

In the last few years, electronic data processing has been progressing only in one direction: The industry has miniaturized its components to the nanometer range. But this process is, presently, reaching its physical boundaries. Scientists at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) are, therefore, investigating spin waves or so-called magnons—a potential alternative for conveying information in more compact microchips.
