The Development of Carbon Nanotube Optical Sensors for Early Disease Detection

Thursday, October 24, 2024
Teledyne Princeton Instruments

Dr. Daniel Heller's team at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center develops nanoscale sensors to detect cancer early using nanomaterials with unique optical properties. These technologies identify disease biomarkers before symptoms appear and measure important molecules in live cells, accelerating biomedical research. Working in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum helps avoid unwanted fluorescence and probe deeper into samples. Advances in deep-cooled cameras with indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) focal plane arrays (FPAs) and new Schmidt-Czerny-Turner (SCT) spectrographs enhance imaging and spectroscopy. These tools have enabled the study of photoluminescent single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) for potential biomedical applications.
