We are improving the performance of Si-vacancy nanodiamonds with a new growth method, and have promising results that suggest sub-millisecond super-resolution imaging and voltage sensitive imaging of neurons with millisecond time resolution may be possible. We are also developing another class of photo-stable near-infrared probes in the IR window for tissue that should allow the simultaneous imaging of more than 12 different proteins or cells at ~ 60 frames per second. Another advantage of the new nanoparticle probes is that they particularly well suited for STED. >> >
