30x30x1 nm, 7 colors

30x30x1 nm, 7 colors ... see figure 1 for colors - the 7 'colors' can
probably be extended to more for a bit more money.
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v481/n7382/extref/nature10734-s1.pdf
The same lab has the adjacent article -
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v481/n7382/extref/nature10745-s1.pdf

30x30x1 nm (yes, nanometer) is very nice - perhaps the fluorescence
nanoscope developers should spend a bit less time on pushing from the
current ~20x20x50 nm (which should get to 10x10x25 nm by a certain
improvement in light output while on) and spend a bit more time on
producing making new biomedical discoveries.

I may say a few words about this approach during my short talk at the
ABRF nanoscopy session in Orlando in late March.
I might start the talk with the nice "SnapShot; light Microscopy" in
Cell (Nov 23, 2011 issue - I was able to download from home)

This MIMS seems like a cool technique, if your question can be solved by
investigating the surface of a dead sample (at least I assume the sample
is dead, if not before then after the ion bombardement; certainly if the
cell surface was sputtered as for Steinhauser et al. Fig 1a).

They say the maximum field size is 80 x 80 µm (Methods to Steinhauser et
al.) With an xy-resolution of 28 nm (Supp Fig 1 legend) according to the
Nyquist criterion that would be >6500 px squared, probably too many. But
let us assume a standard 512x512 px frame for some appropriate ROI, has
anybody an idea what the frame time is?

I guess the sample is not only dead (in vacuum?) but also destroyed inthe imaging process. The only time we used a focussed ion beam was to drill small holes in metal with better than optical precision. A cool technique, but for my taste the paper could have some more information about how the sample is prepared and comparisson to other high resolution techhniques. What is an imersion objective in the cotext of ion beam microscopy?

By 'sputter' they mean eject secondary ions (primary ion is Cs or O). To
image deeper, keep imaging. They also mention a way to ablate layers of
atoms faster.

Pathologists have been using dead H&E tissue sections for clinical
diagnosis for a century. Almost all TEM has been on dead specimens for
over 50 years. For that matter, most fluorescence microscopy - and
especially confocal - microscopy specimens for the past 25 years have
been dead on arrival on the microscope.

Dead is dead - doesn't matter how fast if it gets you the atomic (ions)
info unavailable at the resolution needed to answer the question. More
interesting is where to store,  archive, process and analyze all this data.

George,

I didn't mean to imply that dead is useless. I use dead samples whenever
I can get away with it. Much less trouble than live cell or intravital
microscopy, so I totally agree with you on that point. I merely
mentioned this to suggest that super resolution light microscopy still
has some advantages (potential advantages at least, I admit that
sometimes I wonder how alive a sample still is after catching all the
photons it requires for these techniques.)

I disagree on the issue of speed however. If you need n=30, it will make
an important practical difference whether your frame time is a minute or
an hour.

Thank you for the additional links in your other e-mail. Pretty fascinating.

Steffen
