#New Memristors Could Usher in Bionic Brains Last month we saw researchers in the US push the envelope of nonvolatile memory devices based on resistance switching to the point where they are now capable of mimicking the neurons in the human brain.

postdoctoral fellow Dong Li and their colleagues have added the two new technologies-both variations on SIM-to the set of tools available for super-resolution imaging.
"In traditional SIM, the sample under the lens is observed while it is illuminated by a pattern of light (more like a bar code than the light from a lamp).
He says SIM has received not as much attention as other super-resolution methods largely because those other methods offer more dramatic gains in spatial resolution.
But he notes that SIM has offered always two advantages over alternative super-resolution methods including photoactivated localization microscopy (PALM),
SIM, however, is different.""I fell in love with SIM because of its speed and the fact that it took so much less light than the other methods,
"Betzig says. Betzig began working with SIM shortly after the death in 2011 of one of its pioneers, Mats Gustafsson,
who was a group leader at Janelia. Betzig was convinced already that SIM had the potential to generate significant insights into the inner workings of cells,
and he suspected that improving the technique's spatial resolution would go a long way toward increasing its use by biologists.
Gustafsson and graduate student Hesper Rego had achieved higher-resolution SIM with a variation called saturated depletion nonlinear SIM
Saturated depletion enhances the resolution of SIM images by taking advantage of fluorescent protein labels that can be switched on and off with light.
or more to generate data for the final image. The principle is very similar to the way super-resolution in achieved in STED or a related method called RESOLFT,
"Instead, the new method, called patterned photoactivation nonlinear SIM, begins by switching on just a subset of fluorescent labels in a sample with a pattern of light."
The combined effect of those patterns leads to final images with 62-nanometer resolution--better than standard SIM and a threefold improvement over the limits imposed by the wavelength of light."
I have to take the data in a tenth of a second, or else it will smear out,
Patterned photoactivation nonlinear SIM captures the 25 images that go into a final reconstruction in about one-third of a second.
The team used patterned photoactivation nonlinear SIM to produce videos showing structural proteins break down and reassemble themselves as cells move
Betzig's team also reports in the Science paper that they can boost the spatial resolution of SIM to 84 nanometers by imaging with a commercially available microscope objective with an ultra-high numerical aperture.
by combining the high numerical-aperture approach with patterned photoactivatable nonlinear SIM, Betzig and his colleagues could follow two proteins at a time with higher resolution than the high numerical aperture approach offered on its own.
Betzig's team is continuing to develop their SIM technologies, and say further improvements are likely.
For now, scientists who want to experiment with the new SIM methods can arrange to do so through Janelia's Advanced Imaging Center,
it should be fairly straightforward to make the SIM technologies accessible and affordable to other labs."Most of the magic is in the software, not the hardware,
Now, a team of researchers from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research and the University of Colorado Boulder has devised a novel optical technique--a combination of structured illumination microscopy (SIM
"The use of SIM to study SPB structure completely changes the types of questions we can ask and answer,
and it is likely that SIM will work in living cells, "says Sue Jaspersen, Ph d,
The research team turned to SIM as an optical alternative. SIM uses a laser-generated field of horizontal lines to project an interference pattern onto a sample.
According to Jay Unruh, Ph d.,a Stowers research advisor and co-author, analyzing these patterns enables researchers to effectively double their resolution."
"For all of its advantages, SIM still involves sifting through a great deal of noise. To deal with this problem,
often with even greater precision than via SIM alone,"says Jaspersen.""We estimate the precision to be in the 10-30 nm resolution range."
"The SPA-SIM technique made up part of a two-color structured illumination microscopy approach that used endogenously expressed fluorescent protein derivatives.
According to Unruh, this study represents the first combined use of SPA with SIM, and one of the first dual-color super-resolution SPA papers.
According to Jaspersen, the SPA-SIM technique is applicable to a wide variety of subjects beyond SPB structure."
One, called structured illumination microscopy (SIM), makes laser-based interference patterns that change based on what they interact with,

#Graphene Shows Potential for Energy-efficient Data storage Technologies Graphene can be used to produce energy-efficient, high-density memory chips.
Researchers at Stanford used graphene in three different ways to create data storage technology that has the best features of both volatile and nonvolatile silicon chips.
Phones, laptops and other electronic devices all use memory chips to function. To be desireable they must be fast,
Engineers are presently trying to develop nanomaterial-based memory chips that perform better than their silicon counterparts to be used in low energy data centers and gadgets with a longer battery life.
Data is stored by memory chips in the form of ones and zeroes. Silicon-based memory chips are classified as either volatile and nonvolatile.
Volatile memory can store data only when power is available. Random access memory (RAM) is an example of volatile memory.
Nonvolatile memory is slow but stable and it continues to store the data even when power is not available.
The flash memory used in cell phones is an example of nonvolatile memory. Engineers led by Stanford have demonstrated a way to create memory that combines the stability of flash memory with the speed of RAM.
Like flash memory, RRAM has the ability to store data without power, and it is also fast like volatile silicon memory.
This enables fabrication of smaller RRAM cells that have the capacity to store more data than conventional metal-based conductors.
This material has the ability to store data even when power is not available. Pop and Wong state that graphene unique
