Fighting disease by turning light energy into heat

An emerging technology involving tiny particles that absorb light and turn it into localized heat sources shows great promise in several fields, including medicine. For example, photothermal therapy, a new type of cancer treatment, involves aiming infrared laser light onto nanoparticles near the treatment site. Localized heating in these systems must be carefully controlled since

Giving traditional cameras the capacity for 1.5 million frames per second

Capturing 1.5 million frames per second could aid sports videography, movie production and scientific research Researchers have developed a new imaging method that can capture images at speeds of up to 1.5 million frames per second using standard imaging sensors typically limited to 100 frames per second. This new technology will make it possible to

Taking control of the properties of light with artificial intelligence and optoelectronics

Researchers from INRS and the University of Sussex customize the properties of broadband light sources using an AI algorithm and a photonic chip Using machine-learning and an integrated photonic chip, researchers from INRS (Canada) and the University of Sussex (UK) can now customize the properties of broadband light sources. Also called “supercontinuum”, these sources are

Taking aim at the dreaded tropical disease leishmaniasis

Researchers in medicinal chemistry and parasitology develop an innovative strategy to identify leishmanicidal molecules. Leishmania is a microorganism that enters the human body via a sandfly bite. Instead of fleeing the white blood cells deployed by the immune system to destroy it, the parasite allows itself to be swallowed up. In doing so, Leishmania has developed the ideal

Disruptive breakthrough for photonic quantum information science

With leading corporations now investing in highly expensive and complex infrastructures to unleash the power of quantum technologies, INRS researchers have achieved a breakthrough in a light-weight photonic system created using on-chip devices and off-the-shelf telecommunications components. In their paper published in Nature, the team demonstrates that photons can become an accessible and powerful quantum resource when generated

Leap towards ultra-secure communication and incorporating quantum devices directly into laptops and cell phones

An international team of scientists has set a new record for the complexity possible on a quantum computing chip, bringing us one step closer to the ultra-secure telecommunications of the future. A key component of quantum science and technology is the notion of entangled particles – typically either electrons or particles of light called photons.

Could we one day control the path of lightning?

Experiments show that electric discharges follow certain laser beams. Lightning dart across the sky in a flash. And even though we can use lightning rods to increase the probability of it striking at a specific location, its exact path remains unpredictable. At a smaller scale, discharges between two electrodes behave in the same manner, streaking
