Fast Camera Takes A New Look at Biosensing

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
TEDDINGTON, England, Dec. 9, 2010 — A European consortium comprising the National Physical Laboratory, ST Microelectronics, the University of Edinburgh and TU Delft has been involved in the development and application of the Megaframe Imager - an ultrafast camera capable of recording images at the rate of one million frames per second. Since the introduction of solid-state optical sensors, such as those found in digital cameras, the main trend has moved toward increasing the resolution (i.e. number of pixels) while miniaturizing the chip. Megaframe 32 x 32 single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array fabricated in...Read full article

    fluorescence lifetime imaging
    Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) is an advanced imaging technique that provides information about the lifetime of fluorescence emissions from fluorophores within a sample. Unlike traditional fluorescence imaging, which relies on the intensity of emitted light, FLIM focuses on the time a fluorophore remains in its excited state before returning to the ground state. This fluorescence lifetime is influenced by the local environment and can be used for various applications in biological and...
    nano
    An SI prefix meaning one billionth (10-9). Nano can also be used to indicate the study of atoms, molecules and other structures and particles on the nanometer scale. Nano-optics (also referred to as nanophotonics), for example, is the study of how light and light-matter interactions behave on the nanometer scale. See nanophotonics.
