Photoacoustic Stimulation with Single-Neuron Precision Developed by a BU Team
Linli Shi, et. al.'s paper “Non-genetic Photoacoustic Stimulation of Single Neurons” is published in Light: Science & Applications. This work demonstrated photoacoustic stimulation with single-neuron precision using a tapered fiber optoacoustic emitter (TFOE). The TFOE allows selective activation of single neurons or smaller cellular structures and provides a sub-microsecond temporal resolution. Many new research opportunities will be opened up by the new capabilities offered by TFOE. [News link] [Paper link]
Hybrid Metalens Supports Miniaturization of Coherent Raman Imaging Devices
Collaborating with researchers from Harvard University, Peng Lin et. al. demonstrated coherent Raman scattering imaging with an achromatic, compact, hybrid metalens that is designed to focus two different wavelengths in the near-infrared region. This work showcases the promising potential of metalens for miniature endoscopic CRS imaging. [News link] [Paper link]
