ITMO’s Monday Science Roundup #84
…rever locked in a game of catch-up. Where there once were wax seals and watermarks, now there are sophisticated tags invisible to the human eye – in more ways than one. For instance, a research team from ITMO’s School of Physics and Engineering has recently developed a new type of anti-forgery label; using gold and silicon nanostructures, they’ve created microscop…

ITMO Researchers' New Composite Material Offers 10,000x Amplification of Raman Spectroscopy Signal
…man spectra are unique for each compound, just like fingerprints. However, the probability of Raman scattering is low, which is reflected in the method’s sensitivity: it is insufficient for detecting low concentrations of molecules, especially in complex media, such as biological fluids or petroleum products. This problem can be solved by using ensembles of nanopa…
