Onderzoekers van de TU Delft hebben samen met SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research en LongWave Photonics LLC een doorbraak bereikt in de terahertz-spectroscopie—een essentiële technologie om sterrenstelsels, sterren en de vorming van planeten te bestuderen. Zij hebben een lichtgewicht terahertz-spectrometer gemaakt ter grootte van een centimeter. Dit apparaat zou de huidige, halve meter grote, logge en zware spectrometers kunnen vervangen. Het nieuwe apparaat kan de kosten aanzienlijk verlagen en meer flexibiliteit bieden bij het lanceren, wat deze ruimte-observatoria meer betaalbaar en uitvoerbaar maakt. De innovatie is gepubliceerd in Laser & Photonics Reviews.

The programme aims to make an accurate distinction between people with a high and low risk of dementia outside the hospital. For high-risk patients, the program then aims to provide faster and more accurate diagnoses with advanced imaging and image analysis techniques. The goal is to use analysis tools effectively, sustainably and affordably, and to determine which test is most suitable for whom and when.

The paper EUV wafer metrology using computational imaging method “ptychography” has been selected by Nature Light: Science & Applications as the cover article for the next issue to be published on 31 October.

Mark Vermeulen is a new PhD student in the Menzel group. He will focus on the theoretical analysis and image processing of light scattering signals.

Qiao-Ling will be doing her master thesis under the supervision of Bernd Rieger. The topic is on estimating the localization and orientation of single molecules in the 4pi microscope setup.

Julie Raude is an applied physics master student. She is starting her master thesis project in the lab of Jacob Hoogenboom with Stijn Karaçoban as daily supervisor. The project is about imaging a sample with higher resolution using an ion beam miller with an electron microscope.

Elise Perton's PhD project will be a collaboration between Jacob Hoogenboom and Arjen Jakobi (Bionanoscience). She will use the integrated fluorescence cryo FIB-SEM (built by Daan Boltje) to investigate GBP proteins, and push towards superresolution light microscopy in this integrated fluorescence cryo FIB-SEM.

Tim Holtgrefe is a nanobiology master student. He started his master thesis in the Brinks lab with Marco Post as his daily supervisor. His project focusses on the discovery of novel voltage-dependent fluorescent rhodopsins.

Arash Tebyani joined the Hoogenboom group as postdoc. He will be studying electron-matter interaction, beam damage, charge diffusion and related topics.
