Window to the Brain Could Enable Laser Surgery
RIVERSIDE, Calif., July 25, 2016 — Use of a novel material, nanocrystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia (nc-YSZ), to make cranial implants may allow the safe and efficacious use of laser-based therapies to treat brain disorders and combat the bacterial infections that are a leading cause of cranial implant failure.
Field Study Compares Portable Microscopes for Parasite Diagnosis
TORONTO, July 21, 2016 — Handheld, mobile phone-based microscopes could be used in developing countries after minimal training of community laboratory technicians to diagnose intestinal parasites quickly and accurately.
Very Large Telescope Reveals Low-Mass Bodies in Orion Nebula
ANTOFAGASTA, Chile, July 20, 2016 — The HAWK-I IR instrument on the European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope (VLT) has been used to produce the deepest and most comprehensive view of the Orion Nebula to date. The striking images reveals an abundance of faint brown...
Lens Design Enables Expanded View of Neuronal Activity
RALEIGH, N.C., July 18, 2016 — A novel lens for a two-photon imaging system is able to capture images of the brain that are almost 10 times larger than those captured through a conventional two-photon microscope.
Elastic Peak Electron Spectroscopy Theorized for Surface Analysis
WARSAW, Poland, July 18, 2016 — A theoretical model describing the sampling depth of elastic peak electron spectroscopy for calculating the parameters of electron scattering in the surface layers of samples may enable more reliable interpretation of measurement data and reduce the...
Smart LEDs Deliver Communication and Illumination
ZURICH, July 15, 2016 — Consumer-grade LED light bulbs can be enhanced with basic light-receiving electronics to enable the sensing of incoming signals from other light-emitting devices. The enhanced light bulbs are powerful enough to establish a communication link across...
DNA Origami Enables Glowing Photonic Crystal Cavities
PASADENA, Calif., July 14, 2016 — A microscopic, glowing image of Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” has been fabricated in a demonstration of directed self-assembly of DNA origami onto lithographically patterned binding sites. The technique could enable reliable and controllable...
Blue Light Influences Cognition Even After Exposure Ends
TUCSON, Ariz., July 13, 2016 — Scientists have shown that a single exposure to blue wavelength light for a period of approximately one-half hour leads to measurable changes in brain activity in the prefrontal cortex when people engage in a cognitive task, even after light...
Ninesigma, Essilor to Enter See Change Challenge
CLEVELAND, July 13, 2016 — Innovation accelerator Ninesigma Inc. is collaborating with ophthalmic lens developer Essilor International SA for the See Change Challenge, a worldwide initiative that aims to provide better access to vision care for 2.5 billion people. The...
LED Exposure Impacts Milk Quality More Than Any Other Factor
ITHACA, N.Y., July 12, 2016 — A study to evaluate the effects of LED light on the perceived quality of milk shows that exposure to LEDs for even a few hours degrades the perceived quality of milk even more than the microbial content that naturally accumulates over time. The...
Satellite Mission Tests Quantum Light Source
SINGAPORE, July 11, 2016 — A technology that carries a quantum light source into space may be able to preserve the quantum properties of light as it travels through an optical link from space to Earth. It could provide the basis for establishing a secure global quantum...

Flat Lens Shows Promise For Lab-On-A-Chip Devices
AMSTERDAM, July 7, 2016 — A flat optical lens could help reduce the size of computer hard drives and enable further miniaturization of microscopes and other technologies. The lens, comprising thin layers of silver and titanium dioxide, offers a larger field of view and a...
Mirror-Enhanced Microscopy Captures Cell Behaviors
BEIJING, July 5, 2016 — A novel technique for growing cells on miniature mirrors and imaging them using super-resolution microscopy may provide a way to view cell structures at a micron scale. The technique uses light waves to create interference patterns as light passes...
Ultrathin Metalens Captures Chiral, Spectral Images Simultaneously
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 4, 2016 — An ultracompact planar lens has been engineered to simultaneously form two images of the same object, with opposite helicity and within a single field-of-view. The chiral and spectral properties of the object can be simultaneously probed across the...
High-Density Diffuse Optical Tomography Images Brain Cortical Perfusion
BOSTON, July 1, 2016 — The High-Density Diffuse Optical Tomography (HD-DOT) system from Cephalogics LLC has been used to measure and monitor very small focal changes in cortical perfusion resulting from visual stimulation in healthy volunteers, according to a recent...
Aerial Spectroscopy Reveals Complex Resource Economies in Peruvian Forests
WASHINGTON, D.C., June 30, 2016 — A high-fidelity imaging spectrometer onboard the Carnegie Airborne Observatory has enabled the creation of forest canopy maps of leaf nitrogen, phosphorous, and mass over a large portion of the biosphere covering nearly 200 million acres of Peru....
Ansys, Pitt Collaborate for Additive Manufacturing
PITTSBURGH, June 29, 2016 — Engineering software developer Ansys Inc. has partnered with the University of Pittsburgh to advance additive manufacturing. The two entities aim to solve industry problems such as unexpected metal melting and stress deformities. Lab workers will...
