A New Tool for Live-Cell Imaging FORT COLLINS, Colo., July 5, 2019 — To expand the toolbox of imaging in living cells, researchers from Colorado State University and the Tokyo Institute of Technology have developed a genetically encoded, antibody-based probe that works with specificity in vivo. In this methodology,...
Superresolution Microscopy Platform Offers Immersive Views of Data SEATTLE, June 24, 2019 — A team from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) is working to combine two techniques to create a method, via a platform called ExMicroVR, that will allow researchers to “step inside”...
SPIE to Acquire Photonex, UK’s Optics and Photonics Exhibition BELLINGHAM, Wash., and CARDIFF, Wales, June 20, 2019 — The International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE) has agreed to purchase Xmark Media, trade show organizer of key photonics exhibitions and conferences in the U.K. The purchase includes Photonex Europe, Photonex Scotland, Photonex London,...
Squeezed Light Reduces Noise, Could Speed Quantum Sensing OAK RIDGE, Tenn., June 20, 2019 — Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) physicists studying quantum sensing, which could affect a range of potential applications from airport security scanning to gravitational wave measurements, said that certain quantum sensors can use a...
Quantum Dot Microscope Can Measure Electric Surface Potentials of Single Atoms JÜLICH, Germany, June 18, 2019 — A new scanning quantum dot microscopy method can measure the electric potential of a sample at atomic accuracy. It was developed by a team from Forschungszentrum Jülich, working with researchers from two other institutions. The new technique...
Selective Formation of Excitons Could Lower OLED Energy Requirements TOKYO, June 10, 2019 — Scientists from RIKEN and the University of California San Diego, in collaboration with international partners, have demonstrated a new way to manipulate the excitons that are essential to the transport of electrons within OLEDs. They showed that...
Improved Optical Multiplexing with Temporal DNA Barcodes DURHAM, N.C., April 18, 2019 — In a new imaging technique developed at Duke University in collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, short strands of DNA were labeled with fluorescent, temporal “barcodes” for observing biochemical activity at the molecular...
Molecular Vibrations Imaged for First Time IRVINE, Calif., April 15, 2019 — Scientists at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) focused light down to the size of an atom to produce the first images of a molecule’s normal modes of vibration. The images could provide a better understanding of the concept of...
Photoacoustic Microscopy Used to Image Cancer Cells PASADENA, Calif., April 5, 2019 — Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) are investigating ways in which to better image cancer cells by using photoacoustic microscopy (PAM), a technique that incorporates laser light to induce ultrasonic vibrations, which...
Photoacoustic Technique Measures Frequency to Image Structures of Different Scales TORONTO, March 25, 2019 — A newly developed frequency domain technique for photoacoustic (PA) image formation, developed by a team at Ryerson University and St. Michael’s Hospital, subdivides PA signals into different frequency bands.
