#SPADarray #AI #python #photonresolvedmicroscopy

Excited to launch my lab Optical investigation of Dynamical Systems at @iitalk.bsky.social where we'll explore how optical #microscopy can reveal molecular diffusion. We are hiring a predoc and postdoc, funded by #erc.europa.eu! Interested? Check optodynamics.github.io or www.iit.it/it/openings

Arrived in beautiful, picturesque #Bressanone for #PhysicsOfBiomolecules! Excited for the talks and discussions and to present @vicidominilab.bsky.social's work on #SPAD array detectors for #FCS. We also have open positions @iitalk.bsky.social in Genoa! Feel free to reach out! @erc.europa.eu

Andrea Bucci and Laurent Le will run two workshops on building a custom #PhotonResolvedMicroscopy system and generating great #ImageScanningMicroscopy images.
Thanks @iitalk.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu @genoainstruments.bsky.social and #PNRR RNA&GeneTheraphy for support. See you at #Mifobio2025

Great, Luciano! Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts!

ISM-FLUX offers more than just a simple experimental setup! Discover how the doughnut-shaped illumination provides a homogeneous localization uncertainty over a large FOV and learn about the self-calibrating procedure of ISM-FLUX. Check out our paper for all the details. 5/6

We tested ISM-FLUX on DNA-origami nanorulers, and achieved a median localization uncertainty below 5 nm for single molecules. This precision effortlessly resolved 40 nm and 20 nm nanorulers. 4/6

Similar to #MINFLUX, our localization uncertainty scales with L/sqrt(N), with L the TCP diameter and N the number of photons. However, while MINFLUX requires the emitter to be within the scanned area, ISM-FLUX has a much larger localization range, making it more robust. 3/6

ISM-FLUX makes use of a #SPAD array detector. This boosts localization range and offers flexibility in the scanned target coordinate pattern (TCP). We chose a circular pattern, enabled by galvanometric scan mirrors found in most LSMs. 2/6

Excited to share our paper on ISM-FLUX, our new #MINFLUX-based technology. Achieve sub-10 nm localization uncertainty on single molecules using a straightforward #confocal-based setup with an array detector. 1/6 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our last paper on s²ISM (super-resolution sectioning #ImageScanningMicroscopy) just got published on Nature Photonics @natphoton.nature.com‬! Discover how structured detection in laser scanning microscopes enhances both resolution and optical sectioning:
