About this Research Topic
Recent microscope technology has had fast development, driven in part through the nanoscience revolution and the need to investigate smaller or more complex objects. Either from the technical side or through the point of view of the application, the properties of the electromagnetic wave that possesses fundamental properties which include intensity, wavelength, phase, and polarisation, are widely harnessed. Quantitative parameters associated with those properties represent vital information of the target after the light-matter interaction. To date, numerous intriguing areas of nanoscience research has been developing with microscopy, spanning across fundamental research (e.g., nano-device for spin-orbital conversion), material characterization (e.g., nano-material for batteries and sensors), to biomedical studies and clinical applications (e.g. nano-structure for cancer diagnosis).
To meet the high development throughput of modern nanoscience applications, advanced imaging techniques, novel information extraction and analysis techniques, are certainly required; while the use of different existing microscopic techniques also play an important role in assisting the exploration of the nano-system from different perspectives, such as vectorial information extraction through the vector images.
This Research Topic aims to investigate the frontiers of microscopic techniques and their associated nanoscience applications. Original Research Articles and Perspectives are welcome from multidisciplinary research fields – with a focus on topics including, but not limited to:
• Design or implementation of advanced microscopic techniques (e.g., vector information microscopy).
• Novel image analysis and/or classification approach (e.g., deep learning and machine learning technique).
• Advances in applications associated with nanoscience (e.g., materials or biomedical tissue characterization).
• Any other frontiers fulfilling the criteria for microscopic techniques and nanoscience applications.
