The design of ground-breaking laser scanning opens high-accuracy observations at up to 10,000 frames per second, thereby making the microscope a strong recording tool.
With conventional microscope designs, scanning the excitation laser across the target extremely quickly can be difficult, making it challenging to observe fast biological processes. To address this issue, an international research team developed a high-speed, two-photon microscope that uses a custom acousto-optic deflector to realize unprecedentedly high scanning frequencies. The versatile microscope can reach a maximum frame rate of 10,000 frames per second and record neural activities and blood flow with high precision.

Solids can be melted by heating, but in the quantum world it can also be the other way around: In a joint effort, an experimental team led by Francesca Ferlaino in Innsbruck, Austria, and a theoretical team led by Thomas Pohl in Aarhus, Denmark, show in Nature Communications how a quantum liquid for
Innsbruck, Austria (SPX) Apr 24, 2023 - In the world of computing, we typically think of information as being stored as ones and zeros - also known as binary encoding. However, in our daily life we use ten digits to represent all possible
