Upgrade Your Microscope with Modular OpenStand Platform

Throughput in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is often limited by pump‑down time and sample loading workflows. In this side‑by‑side comparison (trimmed and accelerated), we evaluated a 𝐏𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐦 𝐏𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐬 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐤𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐒𝐄𝐌 against a 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐫‑𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐒𝐄𝐌 using the same sample. Even with an air‑lock, the floor‑model SEM took several minutes longer to reach imaging readiness. Without an air‑lock, that delay can extend to up to 30 minutes. On the other hand, the Phenom Pharos Desktop was ready for imaging in under 60 seconds. Faster time to image directly impacts 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐩𝐮𝐭, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐛.

Brain MRI scans as interactive 3D objects 🧠🩻 Roy Rodenhaeuser showed how medical scan data can be explored using Illumetry IO. It combines a holographic display with a tracked physical frame that slices through a 3D scan of the body, showing different layers as you move it. “Time-to-understanding” could be faster with simple physical interaction that makes complex data easier to grasp. 🌱 Follow for more wild growth-mechanisms src: Flux Innovation Lounge in London.

📰 I'm really happy that our work on imaging magnetic fields is finally out! What is the work about? Magnetic fields can penetrate many materials like human tissue or dielectrics without getting spatially distorted and they carry key information about processes often not directly accessible like neuronal function in the brain. At the same time, magnetic fields are inherently weak and therefore difficult to measure with high resolution and speed One approach to image magnetic fields with high resolution is to utilize the magneto-optical response of NV center diamonds. However, in an imaging configuration using a camera, the resolution to magnetic fields is often technically limited by the chosen camera instead of the physical limitations imposed by the diamond. This, we described almost a decade ago in this article: https://lnkd.in/eEbCsQpk 🚨 In this work together with my colleagues Luca, Nikolaj, Jean-Francois, Marvin, Dhiren, Annika, and Ulrik, by scanning the excitation laser and using regular photo-detectors, we show how the camera limitations can be overcome. We demonstrate: 👉 shot-noise limited detection 👉 microscopic spatial resolution over >100µm field of view 👉 sensitivity to magnetic fields in the nT/rHz range 👉 measurement bandwidth >10kHz The properties are not fully exhausted and we continue further pushing the limits. 📢 Reach out if you have an interest in the physics and technology, we are open to collaborate.

Our latest paper is now published in Physical Review Applied. We show that laser raster scanning combined with single-photodetector imaging enables shot-noise-limited magnetic imaging with NV centers in diamond. This approach offers an alternative to conventional camera-based detection and provides a path toward more sensitive quantum imaging for future biomedical applications.

There’s a fundamental tension at the heart of SPECT imaging technology.    Sensitivity.   Resolution.   Field of view.     Improving one always comes at the cost of the others. This is the triangle of compromise, and every preclinical SPECT researcher eventually runs into it.    Our on-demand webinar "Advanced Insights in Preclinical SPECT" breaks down why this trade-off exists, how detector and collimator design affect it, and what that means for your imaging studies in practice.    We're sharing it now for a reason 👇    Something is coming that has a lot to say about this triangle. We're not ready to talk about it yet, but this webinar is a good place to start:  https://lnkd.in/epmd8uVb
