Microscopy is the study of objects and parts of objects using a microscope as they can not be observed with the naked eye. There are many branches of microscopy including optical and electron microscopy. It works by diffracting, reflecting or refracting light.
MIRIAM (Multimode InfraRed Imaging And Microspectroscopy) provides a brilliant and versatile microprobe for high resolution imaging of molecular structures as well as high sensitivity vibrational spectroscopy via FTIR up to the THz range. Experiments span from biomedical applications to physical-chemical researches.
