Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) of the U.S Department of Energy (DOE) has developed artificial semiconductor nanocrystal molecules and observed them working against the basic principle of photoluminescence called Kasha's rule, which states that when light is directed on a molecule, it will emit light that is fluorescent or phosphorescent only from its lowest energy excited state.
Ann Arbor-based University of Michigan has declared Olympus America as its major partner for its Lurie Nanofabrication Facility (LNF). Olympus will offer researchers improved camera equipment, software, and microscopes to enhance their investigation, measurement, characterization, optical imaging, and inspection needs.
