"Holographic Microscopy: Using Lasers to Study the Microscopic World"Lauren Altman
University of Pennsylvania
From bacterial infections to microplastics, understanding the forces at play in the microscopic realm is crucial for advancements in many scientific fields. With microscopes, we can image these tiny particles that are too small to see with the human eye, but there is still a wealth of useful information that gets lost. Holography is a technique that uses laser light to resolve that high-dimensional information, allowing us to track the dynamics and properties of these particles with high precision in real time. This powerful technique can be utilized for practical applications like diagnostic tests and water quality monitoring, but also to answer fundamental questions about the nature of hydrodynamic interactions and fluid flows at the micro scale.
