The new nanospectroscopy end station is based on a scanning optical microscope and enables imaging and spectroscopy with infrared light with a spatial resolution of more than 30 nm.

Conventional top Ag electrodes utilized for transparent solar cell applications typically range in thickness from 9 to 15 nm.

"It offers a simple approach to realize processing scales below 100 nm and opens new possibilities for laser nano-processing in various industries and scientific fields."

Remarkably, their study has showcased a spatial resolution of sub-40 nm for proton imaging; this holds tremendous promise for advancing various fields, such as materials characterisation, medical imaging and scientific research.

After obtaining small biofilm clusters, they conducted optical trapping experiments using either a 473 nm blue laser or an near infrared Ti:sapphire laser that could be tuned from 700 to 1000 nm.
