Nanodisk Device Could Advance Nonlinear, High-Index Nanophotonics
A photonics nanostructure that combines a high refractive index with extreme optical nonlinearity could offer a compact, efficient option for compressing light and changing light frequency. The nanodisk structure could be integrated into optical circuits or used in the miniaturization of photonic devices, in addition to being used as a research tool.

One-Dimensional Gas Created with Light
Physicists from the Institute of Applied Physics at the University of Bonn, in cooperation with colleagues at the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau, have created a one-dimensional gas out of light particles. The work enables the testing of theories about the transition to this state of matter for the first time.

Multiplex Imaging: Camera, Lights, Optics, Action!
Tue, Oct 29, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
Multiplex imaging, either multicolor fluorescence or multispectral absorption and reflection imaging, is rapidly gaining popularity in the life sciences and medical arenas. Being able to image samples at a variety of wavelengths in live or fixed samples provides a depth of information that was never possible to attain with conventional microscopy. From deeper tissue penetration to enhanced surgical guidance and improved disease detection, multiplex imaging enhances medical diagnostics with noninvasive, detailed, live insights into pathological and physiological states of tissue for better patient outcomes. This webinar discusses the options and requirements for performing multiplex imaging from the illumination to the detection and the optics in between to navigate the light to and from the sample. Presented by Excelitas Technology Corp.
