  By <a href="http://www.techtimes.com/reporters/james-maynard">James Maynard</a> -<br><br>Microscopes are now 20 times more sensitive than ever before, thanks to lasers. The new evolution in microscopy is also able to detect extremely subtle forces, as light as the weight of a single virus, roughly 100 billion times less massive than a mosquito.<br><br><a href="http://www.techtimes.com/articles/13195/20140816/atomic-force-microscope-sensitivity-increases-20-times-laser-cooling.htm">READ MORE ON TECH TIMES</a>
