Recent advances in microscopy techniques have opened new avenues for microscopes to be used in optogenetics, nanophotonics, photochemical catalysis, and the fabrication of superhydrophobics. Optogenetics is a neuromodulation technique that uses light as a stimulus to control and monitor the activities of individual neurons in living tissue.

A recent application of optogenetics in combination with microscopy is in research on layers of cultivated excitable cells to understand the general biology of action, potential generation, axonal signal transmission, and synaptic activities. These emerging application areas of microscopy are expected to offer significant growth opportunities to market players in the coming years. 

Owing to technological advancements, there has been a shift in the usage patterns of microscopes. Conventional microscopes are gradually losing popularity to high-end microscopes such as electron microscopes, scanning probe microscopes, and digital microscopes due to their advanced features, higher resolution, and magnification power.

However, these microscopes cost between USD 25,000 and USD 2 million, which is a major factor limiting their adoption in hospitals, pathology laboratories, and small-scale industries.
