Congratulations to Liliana Barbieri and team for receiving the best poster award at the EMBL symposium “Seeing is Believing” for a joint project with the UiT Nanoscopy group. More information on the poster, titled “CalQTrace: Simultaneous Calculation and Quantification of … Continued
We have published a video article at the Journal of Visualized Experiments demonstrating how to perform nanoscopy using a photonic chip. It shows how our waveguides can substitute a complex and expensive super-resolution optical microscope with a regular microscope and … Continued
Jean-Claude Tinguely received the Best Poster Award at this year’s ePIXfab Silicon Photonics Summer School organized by Ghent University and Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies in Pisa, Italy. The poster, titled “Photonic integrated circuits for super-resolution microscopy,” presented an overview of the … Continued
Balpreet Singh Ahluwalia just received a new affiliation with the prestigious Karolinska Institute in Sweden. This is in addition to his ongoing appointment at UiT Physics. Well done!
This fall we will once again host a 10-credit course on Nanoscopy for both Masters and PhD students. The course will have both theoretical and practical components, including significant time in the labs. The course is organized by Balpreet Singh … Continued
In a recent report from the EU Delegation to India, Balpreet Singh Ahluwalia shared his experience in living and researching in Europe as an Indian national. Ahluwalia serves a valuable role as an ERC Ambassador to India, and his testimony … Continued
Congratulations to both Sebastián Andrés Acuña Maldonado and Daniel Henry Hansen for successfully defending their Masters’ theses! Sebastian will be continuing his work developing computational nanoscopy algorithms, with a thesis title of “Multiple Signal Classification Algorithm: computational time reduction and pattern … Continued
On Monday and Tuesday approximately 20 scientists joined together for a transdisciplinary workshop on cardiac research. The intended purpose of the workshop was to provide the necessary background so that both the nanoscopy group and those from medical biology could … Continued
Florian has joined the optics group at UiT as a new postdoc with funding from his Marie Sklowdowska-Curie Individual Fellowship. His project is entitled “Development of Deep-UV Quantitative Microscopy for the Study of Mitochondrial Dysfunction” and will focus on developing … Continued
In our processing laboratory we have access to sputtering machines for deposition of metals and dielectrics (AJA Orian 5, Cressington 208HR), a mask aligner (Zeuss MJB4), a surface profiler (KLA Tencor P6), a spin coater (Laurel WS650-23) and a microplotter … Continued
