Latest Patents
Aharon Blank holds a patent for an "Electron spin resonance microscope for imaging with micron resolution." This patent describes ESR microscope systems and methods for examining specimens using both continuous wave and pulsed modes in the 9 to 60 GHz range. The ESR microscope utilizes an image probe that includes gradient coils, along with conventional modulation coils in continuous wave mode or magnetic field bias coils in pulse mode. A resonator made from high permittivity material is also a key component of this invention. The systems and methods involve sample containers that allow for precise placement of samples in relation to the image probe. The microscope employs a microstrip or thin coaxial or dielectric antenna to achieve a high coupling coefficient to the specimen being imaged. This innovative system provides resolution at the single micron level and enables the observation of images comprising tens to hundreds of pixels across two or three dimensions in just a few minutes. Additionally, novel stable radicals used as imaging media are described in the patent.
