• ITMO Physicists Develop Multifunctional Material for Thermal Melanoma Therapy

  Researchers at ITMO have suggested a quick and simple method to synthesize gold plasmonic nanodiamonds – these hybrid materials can find their application in photothermal therapy of melanoma. The new material can perform two functions: heat up a tumor and measure its temperature. In vitro experiments demonstrated that once plasmonic nanodiamonds were introduced into a tumor and heated, the tumor’s growth slowed down by 65.22%. The results of the study were described in Nanophotonics.

• A Novel Atom-Twisting Method Proposed by ITMO Researchers

  Scientists from ITMO University discovered that an atom adopts a twisted structure when absorbing twisted light. As the proposed model facilitates and accelerates the twisting process, it provides an insight into the physics of interactions between structured light and complex quantum systems, as well as will be helpful in microscopy, quantum tomography and computing, and telecommunications. The results of the study are published in Physical Review. The research is supported by the Russian Science Foundation.
