Abstract

We have built a simple holographic microscope completely out of consumer components. We obtain at least 2.8 micrometer resolution and depth of field greater than 200 micrometers from an instrument costing less than $1000.

A Simple, Inexpensive Holographic Microscope… : DASH Story 2013-04-28
I am an independent researcher working on low-cost open-source lab equipment. I run biotechnology workshops and supply affordable equipment in Northern California. Lacking institutional affiliation, I sometimes find it difficult to access literature while developing new products or teaching existing classes. Thanks to Harvard's enlightened open-access policy for this article, I am working on reproducing the results of this article in my own lab. Thanks, Harvard!
