Scope Reveals New Physics of Graphene
GAITHERSBURG, Md., Sept. 8, 2010 — Using a one-of-a-kind scanning-probe microscope, an international team of researchers discovered that electrons in graphene, which comprise four quantum states, can split into different energies when exposed to extremely low temperatures and extremely high magnetic fields. The new research raises questions about the fundamental physics of graphene and reveals new effects that may make the material even more powerful than previously expected for practical applications. While graphene is a sim...
Grant to Fund Single-Molecule Microscope
AMES, Iowa, Sept. 3, 2010 — An Iowa State University researcher received a state grant to develop an instrument that reveals single molecules. Sanjeevi Sivasankar, an assistant professor of physics and astronomy, demonstrates a microscope he's developing that can reveal...
Laser Services Expands Capabilities
WESTFORD, Mass., Sept. 3, 2010 — Laser cutting, drilling, scribing, etching and welding service provider Laser Services announced recently the expanded capabilities in both ceramic materials inventory and its laser-based machining services for those materials. Along with its...
“Smartdust” shines new light on SERS
XIAMEN, China – Layering dust onto a surface you wish to study may seem counterintuitive, but scientists in China and the US claim that their “smartdust” will enable Raman spectroscopy to be used on any surface. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering...
Applications abound for newly licensed microLEDs
STRATHCLYDE, UK – Communications and life sciences can expect a boost from a newly formed company in Glasgow. In a spinout deal, the University of Strathclyde has formed mLED Ltd., a company dedicated to promoting its newly licensed microLEDs, dense arrays of up...
Putting the “Eye” in CSI
Sep 1, 2010 — Forensic investigation hasn’t yet achieved the sci-fi type of technological sophistication seen on CSI and other television crime shows, but it’s getting there. Having seen what is possible with DNA, and often feeling considerable...
Solar design triumphs through thick and thin
Sep 1, 2010 — The quest for high power-conversion efficiency in most thin-film solar cells has often been hindered by the “thick and thin” challenge, in which a cell must be thick enough to collect a sufficient amount of light, yet thin enough to...
Using Reverse Engineering to Discover Patent Infringement
Sep 1, 2010 — Fundamental to building and executing any successful patent licensing program is the ability to find and prove evidence of infringement, often through reverse engineering methods. This article explores the role of reverse engineering in identifying...
Why Optics Manufacturing in Japan Is Still Relevant
Sep 1, 2010 — Small and medium-size enterprises around the world continue to focus on cost-cutting activities, including moving labor-intensive operations to lower-cost regions such as China, Thailand, Vietnam, India, Russia or Brazil. Even Japanese companies...
Revealing How Cells Die
BUFFALO, N.Y., Aug. 27, 2010 — Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is essential to normal development, healthy immune system function and cancer prevention. The process dramatically transforms cellular structures, but the limitations of conventional microscopy methods have kept...
Bright Boost for Fluorescent Probes
PITTSBURGH, Aug. 26, 2010 – Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University’s Molecular Biosensor and Imaging Center (MBIC) are turning up the brightness on a group of fluorescent probes called fluoromodules that are used to monitor biological activities of individual...
DNA Helps Chemists Build Artificial Nose
STANFORD, Calif., Aug. 25, 2010 — A new approach to building an artificial nose – using fluorescent compounds and DNA – could accelerate the use of sniffing sensors into the realm of mass production and widespread use, say Stanford University chemists. If their method...
Olympus Scanner Wins 2 Awards
HAMBURG, Germany, August 25, 2010 — Olympus won a pair of awards at the first European Scanner Contest, which took place May 25-29 in Berlin, running parallel to the 94th annual meeting of the German Society of Pathology. With categories in quality, mass scanning and cytology,...
Quantum Particles in Perfect Order
GARCHING, Germany, Aug. 20, 2010 — For the first time a team around Stefan Kuhr and Immanuel Bloch at Max Planck Institute of Quantum (MPQ) has now succeeded in observing — atom by atom, lattice site by lattice site — single-atom resolved images of a highly correlated...
Queen’s University Selects Linkam Stages
TADWORTH, England, Aug. 20, 2010 — For 10 years, Linkam Scientific Instruments has been used as temperature stage suppliers to Queen’s University in Canada to study the properties of ferroelectric liquid crystals. The research program, led by Professor Robert Lemieux and his...
Omega Optical, Spectral Molecular Win SBIR Award
BRATTLEBORO, Vt., Aug. 18, 2010 — Omega Optical Inc. announced it has won a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research award from the National Cancer Institute to develop a high-speed fiber optic-based optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) that will be interfaced to confocal scanning...
Veeco Sells Metrology Unit to Bruker
PLAINVIEW, N.Y., & BILLERICA, Mass., Aug 16, 2010 — Veeco Instruments Inc. announced Monday that it will sell its metrology business to scientific instruments provider Bruker Corp. for $229 million in cash. The sale will transfer Veeco Metrology to Billerica-based Bruker, including its atomic force...

WASHINGTON, August 13, 2010 — Ahmed H. Zewail, 1999 Chemistry Nobel laureate and Linus Pauling Professor of Chemistry & Professor of Physics at the California Institute of Technology, has been named winner of the 2011 Priestley Medal by the American Chemical Society (ACS)....
JPK Announces Annual Meeting
BERLIN, Aug. 12, 2010 — Nanoanalytic instrument maker JPK Instruments has announced that registration is open for the ninth annual international symposium on the applications of scanning probe microscopy and optical tweezers. The meeting will be held Oct. 6 to 7 in...
ID’ing Molecules from the Briny Deep
ABERDEEN, UK, and ZURICH, Switzerland, Aug. 11, 2010 — In a pioneering research project, scientists at IBM and the University of Aberdeen have collaborated to “see” the structure of a marine compound from the deepest place on the Earth using an atomic force microscope (AFM). The results of...
Redrawing Microscopy’s Boundaries
BELFAST, Northern Ireland, August 11, 2010 — Two Andor back-illuminated electron-multiplying CCD (EMCCD) cameras have been instrumental in helping Steven Chu, a Nobel laureate and current US Secretary of Energy, redraw the boundaries of optical microscopy. By developing an active...
