Congratulations! In February 2020 Daqing Wang was granted „the 2019 Chinese Government Award for Outstanding Self-financed Student Abroad“ by China Scholarship Council.

This Award, starting in 2003, was founded by the Chinese government with the purpose of rewarding the academic excellence of…

Label-free optical imaging and analytical techniques are in high demand in a wide range of applications. Among the various light-matter interactions that can be used for this purpose, elastic scattering is the most fundamental and ubiquitous contrast mechanism. Indeed, several imaging modalities,…

Chapter 2 in a new book on Label-Free Super-Resolution Microscopy by Springer tells the story of Interferometric Scattering (iSCAT) Microscopy, its emerging applications, and its relation to other interferometric methods.

Michelle Küppers has been shortlisted for the Nano Innovation Award 2019 in the category Outstanding Master's Thesis in the field of nanosciences and nano(bio)technology.

The Nano Innovation Award is awarded annually by the Center for NanoScience together with the CeNS spin-offs attocube systems,…

The human body is composed of billions of cells, each one representing the smallest self-sustaining unit of life. We know that surfaces of our cells are carpeted with a layer of densely crowded molecules which rush about in a perpetual frenzy. In the blink of an eye, these molecules undergo…

Phys.org has published an interview with Vahid Sandoghdar and Daqing Wang presenting our latest article published in Nature Physics. In the article "Turning a molecule into a coherent two-level quantum system" our researchers show how it is possible to turn a molecule into a coherent two-level…
