High-precision tumor resection down to few-cell level guided by NIR-IIb molecular fluorescence imaging source:PNASSurgical removal of tumors has been performed to combat cancer for over a century by surgeons relying on visual inspection and experience to identify margins between malignant and healthy tissues. Herein, we present a rare-earth down-conversion nanoparticle–anti-CD105 conjugate for cancer targeting and a handheld imager capable of concurrent photographic imaging and fluorescence/luminescence imaging. An unprecedented tumor-to-muscle ratio was achieved by near-infrared-IIb (NIR...

source:Automotive NewsThe growing demand for electric vehicles is upending the automotive supply chain at a time when it was already stressed by the coronavirus pandemic, rising material prices and semiconductor shortages.The industry's push for new technologies and solutions is enormous, and R&D work is underway around the industry.During 2019 and 2020, the world's top 20 automakers alone spent nearly $94 billion on R&D as EV product plans take hold, according to a report last year by the financial firm BDO.Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares has warned suppliers that they, too, mus...

source:optics.orgScientists from the University of Warsaw, the Military University of Technology, Poland, and the University of Southampton, UK, have developed a new type of tunable microlaser emitting two beams. “The beams are polarized circularly and directed at different angles,” explained Prof. Jacek Szczytko from Warsaw.This result was obtained by creating a “persistent-spin helix” on the surface of the microcavity. The achievement is described in Physical Review Applied.The scientists filled the optical microcavity with a liquid crystal doped with an organic laser dye. The microcavity co...
