Microscopy News
Making Microscale Wrinkles
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 3, 2012 — A new method of creating microscale wrinkled surfaces with precise sizes and patterns can be compared to the way raisin skins dry, becoming stiff and wrinkly as the pulp inside dries out.
A Novel Approach to Negative Refraction
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 2, 2012 — An “extraordinarily strong” negative refractive index as large as -700 - more than 100 times larger than most previously reported - was achieved in metamaterials using a new technique developed by scientists at the Harvard School of Engineering and...
Matter waves conjured in Schrödinger’s hat
SEATTLE – An amplifier devised to boost light, sound or other waves while hiding them inside an invisible container could lead to the construction of a quantum microscope that captures quantum waves and monitors electronic processes on computer chips. The...
Mergers and Acquisitions, Oh My!
Aug 1, 2012 — It has been another eventful year for the photonics industry as companies continue to seek new opportunities, fresh markets and complementary technologies to add to their portfolios. The weakening of overall consumer and industry markets in Europe...
Nanohole-Based Sensors Ideal for Medical Diagnostics
SINGAPORE, July 20, 2012 — Novel molecular sensors based on thin metallic films with nanoholes hold promise for medical diagnostic applications where it is necessary to detect small quantities of molecules.
Loops of Light Optically Detect Single Molecules
LEUVEN, Belgium, July 19, 2012 — A new nanoscale light-manipulation method that optically detects single molecules could be used in a variety of photochemistry applications and could help advance technologies for visualizing single molecules and multiple-molecule interactions.
New Frontiers in Academic Publishing
Jul 18, 2012 — Academic publishing today employs many of the models that have served it for decades, even as the IT revolution has otherwise swept across the publishing landscape. The Swiss-based open-access publisher Frontiers is looking to change this. In only a...
Olympus Licenses Pathology Patents to Zeiss
CENTER VALLEY, Pa., and JENA, Germany, July 12, 2012 — Olympus America Inc. and Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH have signed a nonexclusive worldwide licensing agreement that allows Zeiss to access Olympus’ portfolio of digital pathology and virtual microscopy patents.
Metamolecules Change Chirality Under Light
BERKELEY, Calif., July 11, 2012 — For the first time, the chirality of artificial molecules has been switched from a right-handed to a left-handed orientation using a light beam. The discovery holds potential for a range of terahertz technology applications, including biomedical...
Portrait of a Single Atom
BRISBANE, Australia, July 11, 2012 — The shadow of a single atom was photographed for the first time using a superhigh-resolution microscope, a discovery that could help scientists confirm their understanding of atomic physics and be useful for quantum computing.
Spot Imaging Distributing Zeiss Microscopes
STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich., July 10, 2012 — The scientific imaging equipment supplier was appointed an authorized Carl Zeiss microscope dealer in the US.
Optical Microscope Detects Rare Cancer Cells
LOS ANGELES, July 9, 2012 — A new optical microscope that easily detects rare cells in real time could help doctors diagnose diseases earlier and could monitor disease treatments.
Asylum Research Names Canadian Distributor
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., July 3, 2012 — Spectra Research Corp. was appointed Asylum’s exclusive Canadian distributor as part of its continued expansion.
Moth Eyes May Enhance Medical Imaging
NEW YORK, July 3, 2012 — New nanoscale materials modeled after the eye of a moth can improve the light-capturing efficiency of x-ray machines and similar medical imaging devices.
Laser Probes Pollution Particles
HAMBURG, Germany, and MENLO PARK, Calif., July 2, 2012 — A new investigation using x-rays from the Linac Coherent Light Source has helped researchers better understand the structure of airborne soot particles. Visualizing the structure of individual aerosol particles in the air for the first time will...
B&W Tek Receives Patent
Jul 1, 2012 — B&W Tek Inc. of Newark, Del., has been awarded US Patent No. 8,135,249 for a fiber optic probe that mounts directly above the objective lens of a microscope to add spectroscopic function with minimal alteration to the optical path. The probe and...
Gamma ray refraction could launch nuclear photonics
GRENOBLE, France – An experiment in which gamma rays were bent like ordinary light overturns decades of theoretical predictions and opens the door to a new field of research called nuclear photonics. Gamma rays are essentially a highly energetic form of light....
Nanoscale Biomaterials Require Close Observation
Jul 1, 2012 — Replacement bones and blood vessels are just two types of artificial tissues that require deep-imaging microscopy techniques to develop. Studying useful materials is not limited to macroscale structures such as sheet metal, optical glass, wood...
All-Carbon Solar Cell Harnesses NIR Light
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 22, 2012 — A new all-carbon solar cell developed by MIT taps into near-IR light, a region that is completely unused by today’s solar systems but represents about 40 percent of the solar energy reaching Earth’s surface.
Plasmonic Capabilities of Graphene Brought to Light
SAN DIEGO, and BARCELONA, Spain, June 21, 2012 — Graphene has been found to be an excellent host for guiding, confining and electrically manipulating light, two independent studies report.
Technique Calibrates Hyperspectral Sensors
GAITHERSBURG, Md., June 18, 2012 — Software that calibrates hyperspectral imagers could ensure that their performance is optimized for medical applications, such as determining diseased tissue margins during surgery.
Focal Point, piezosystem jena Partner on Autofocus Systems
BOISE, Idaho, and HOPEDALE, Mass., June 11, 2012 — The two companies entered into a partnership to deliver turnkey autofocus systems for high-speed metrology and biological imaging applications.
Olympus Microscope Earns 2012 Edison Award
CENTER VALLEY, Pa., June 7, 2012 — The company received the Gold Edison Award for a microscope system that enables imaging deeper into tissue than ever, the company announced.
Smallest Possible Five-Ringed Structure Created
LONDON, June 7, 2012 — In honor of the upcoming Summer Olympics, the smallest possible five-ringed structure – just 1.2 nm in width and about 100,000 times thinner than a human hair – has been created and imaged using a combination of synthetic chemistry and...
From Embryo to Larva: Microscope Observes Fly Growth
HEIDELBERG, Germany, June 5, 2012 — For the first time, a two-and-a-half-hour-old fruit fly embryo was filmed in 3 D using a new microscope that rapidly images biological processes in thick samples at unprecedented detail.
