Ghost imaging is like a game of Battleship. Instead of seeing an object directly, scientists use entangled photons to remove the background and reveal its silhouette. This method can be used to study ...

A fundamental difficulty of working with nanoparticles is that your objects of study are too small for an optical microscope to resolve, and thus measuring their size can be quite a challenge. Of ...

The approach could eventually enable smart materials and coatings that can switch between different optical, mechanical and electronic properties. The imaging technique lets researchers watch how ...

(Nanowerk News) Using a unique combination technology, a team of researchers from Nagoya University in Japan has analyzed the mechanisms of the light-matter interaction in nanomaterials at the ...

A group of scientists from Nagoya University in Japan used a novel combination of technologies to investigate the principles of light–matter interaction in nanomaterials at the lowest and fastest ...

After only six months from the inauguration of the Joint Electron Microscopy Center at ALBA (JEMCA), this marvel of technology is already feeding published research. In fact, the first paper including ...

She will use single-cell injections and a microscope to track the nanoparticles and watch what happens to them over time inside individual cells. The CAREER award is considered the agency's most ...
