The UC2 system allows users to produce a high-quality microscope at low cost, making it suitable for areas where conventional microscopes are not feasible. The open-source tool also enables researchers to share their knowledge and incorporate it into their work, promoting open science.
Researchers from Jena have developed a device using laser light to detect tumors, providing real-time information for surgeons. This compact microscope combines three imaging techniques and uses artificial intelligence to analyze tissue samples, promising faster and more reliable results than traditional frozen section diagnostics.
Researchers create compact system for fluorescence imaging at the tip of a fibre, enabling high-resolution images of brain cells and neuronal processes in deep brain areas. This breakthrough technology offers a minimally invasive approach to study sensory perception, memory formation, and severe neuronal diseases like Alzheimer's.
Scientists at Leibniz-Institute of Photonic Technology developed a rapid test that identifies bacterial strains and their resistances in under three hours. This breakthrough reduces the analysis time from 72 hours, enabling faster diagnosis and treatment for infectious diseases.
Researchers from Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology in Jena generate broadband light spectrum with solitons in the near-infrared range, exhibiting unique nonlinear optical effects and high transmission. The use of liquid core fibers enables a more stable alternative to traditional broadband light sources.
