"Physicists Push Microscopes Beyond Limits with Superlensing Breakthrough"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Phys.org
Physicists at the University of Sydney have developed a new technique called superlensing that allows for high-resolution imaging beyond the diffraction limit without the need for a super lens. By placing the light probe far away from the object and collecting both high- and low-resolution information, they were able to selectively amplify evanescent light waves to produce a clear image. This breakthrough could have applications in fields such as cancer diagnostics, medical imaging, archaeology, and forensics.
