For decades, researchers have used these signatures, known as Raman spectra, as chemical fingerprints to characterize cells. Unlike flow cytometry, microfluidics, and other cell sorting methods, ...

In contrast, single-cell Raman spectroscopy has emerged as a promising technology for rapid pathogen identification. This method characterizes the phenotypic features of microorganisms and offers ...

More than 50 million people worldwide live with epilepsy, with approximately half of them being children. For about one-third ...

A new study demonstrates the potential of Raman spectroscopy to improve surgical outcomes for pediatric patients with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II, a leading cause of drug-resistant epilepsy ...

The Raman Microspectroscopy Laboratory is a core research facility housed in the Department of Geological Sciences for fast, non-destructive characterization and chemical imaging of diverse materials ...

Unlike erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs), which boost wavelengths in the 1530-1610 nm range, a Raman amplifier can increase the signal strength of any wavelength by pumping at 13THz more than ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...

Compared with other ablative therapies, stereotactic body radiotherapy might offer a ‘particularly advantageous option’ for ...
