  • ITMO Researchers Suggest Design for Biointegrable Controlled Nanoparticles

    Scientists from ITMO University have designed a unique smart nanomaterial that can be controlled via heat: when subjected to light, the material changes both shape and color. This discovery will be beneficial to the development of non-invasive biosensors, signal systems, and non-toxic dyes. The results of the study were published in the international edition of Angewandte Chemie.

  • From Digital to Optical: Scientists Demonstrate the Work of First Chemically Synthesized Optical Switch

    Today, scientists from all over the world face the task of creating optical switches. These devices will allow for transmitting information in binary code with the help of light, which in the future will be useful for the development of ultrafast optical memory cells. ITMO University scientists have demonstrated how to create, using a femtosecond laser, an all‐optical switch based on a metal‐organic framework which can be synthesized in vitro and is usually used in chemistry for gas absorption. The research has been published in the journal Angewandte Chemie.
