• ITMO’s Monday Science Roundup #63

  …ethods for this type of cancer is hyperthermia – or, simply put, heating. The trick, however, is in maintaining the right temperature at every stage. The multifunctional nanomaterial serves two functions: it heats up the tumor in order to dismantle its protein structure while measuring its temperature at the same time.

• ITMO Physicists Develop Multifunctional Material for Thermal Melanoma Therapy

  …Clinicians combine varied therapy methods to diagnose and treat the disease, including hyperthermia – localized heating of the tumor. This involves first introducing special materials – such as gold nanoparticles capable of transforming light energy into heat – into the tumor. This way, the temperature of the malignant growth is increased up to 40-50°C. The heating d…

• A Novel Atom-Twisting Method Proposed by ITMO Researchers

  …Unlike that of ordinary atoms, the wavefront of twisted atoms resembles a meat grinder screw or corkscrew helix, which makes them a promising means of analysis of material structure in electron microscopy and data transmission.  Typically, the “twist” is achieved via custom diffraction gratings through which researchers run a stream of particles. The problem is, t…
