MIniaturized-Cell-Enhanced PhotoAcoustic Spectroscopy Scientists from the LOD work on a miniaturized photoacoustic cell. The volume of internal cavity for the cell is ~ 5 mm3. We have an experience how to design, manufacture, test and apply such cells. Despite the reduced sizes, the developed cells are comparable in the performance (that is, in the sensitivity) with respect to non-miniaturized ones. The minimal detectable absorption estimated from our experiment for the cells is better than ~ 10-8 cm-1 W Hz-1/2. Such a millimeter-sized cell powered by the minute commercially available laser source (for instance, a near-infrared distributed-feed-back laser diode or mid-infrared quantum cascade laser) with a typical output power of ~ 10 mW will allow to detect trace gases at a sensitivity level, which can be attained by the absorption spectroscopy techniques along the optical path longer than 10 km. See http://www.micepas.basnet.by/ (http://www.micepas.basnet.by/) for more details.
Study on self-reconstruction of Bessel beams A series of experiments on passing Bessel beams in scattering media has been conducted confirming the effect of reconstruction of a Bessel beam after shading by single obstacles. Thus, the detailed theoretical and experimental investigations have confirmed that the self-reconstruction of the structure is the basic property of the Bessel beams. This property constitute a physical basis of the concrete developments of various optical probes for the nondestructive testing and studying various scattering media. Bessel beam based laser probes are perspective in optical tomography, confocal microscopy, multi-photon fluorescence microscopy, imaging through scattering media et all.
Multiscope Prostate Cancer Detection Feasibility of highly accurate differentiation between malignant and benign tissue in prostatic specimen has been demonstrated by using combined Laser-Induced Fluorescence and Electrical Impedance measurements.

LOD's scientists in Minsk are skilled in a broad spectrum of optical techniques including, original femtosecond and scanning near-field microscopy, heterodyne and speckle interferometry, holographic inspection methods and polarimetry. Combined with the IZFP researchers’ measurement art in ultrasound and radiation diagnostics (x-ray tomography, neutrons, microwaves beam techniques, radiotracers, electrons, ions) and deep knowledge of material nature it results in the development of innovative solutions for the variety of application areas being inaccessible for both Parties in the past.
In profile of the ISL LOD are • Laser femtosecond technologies, including femtosecond spectroscopy for material characterization, biology and medicine • Optical Profiling of Nano and Microstructures • Nondestructive Characterization of Innovative Materials and Industrial Components • Nanosensors development • Medical diagnostics • Automation of inspection methods, their integration into manufacturing technologyISL works in close cooperation with German and Belarus industry aiming to provide effective market solutions. We seek for your technical problem to be solved! |
