Impetux has been awarded AGAIN with the Innovative SME seal. This certification is awarded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities in recognition of the investment done in research. We really have an innovative soul!
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2018 has recognized the great pioneering work in the field of laser done by Arthur Ashkin, Gérard Mourou and Donna Strickland. Congratulations to the three of them for this well deserved recognition and especially to Dona Strickland for becoming only the third woman in history to win the physics prize. Her predecessor: Maria Goeppert-Mayer was awarded 55 years ago!
In this work Professor Denz and her team: Mr. Meissner and Dr. Oliver, use our force measurement system commercially available: Lunam T-40i, to measure forces on cylindrical probes (*) in order to establish whether the established methodology for force sensing based on spherical objects still applies for other geometrically anisotropic probes.

An interesting new article have been published today in Scientific Reports related with IMPETUX technology:
Influence of experimental parameters on the laser heating of an optical trap – Català, F. et al.
In optical tweezers, heating of the sample due to absorption of the laser light is a major concern as temperature plays an important role at microscopic scale deeply dicused in this article.
An interesting new article have been published today in Scientific Reports related with IMPETUX technology:
Extending calibration-free force measurements to optically-trapped rod-shaped samples – Català, F. et al.
In this article the authors demonstrate that the beam momentum detection can be applied to measure forces on optically trapped cylinders, without the need for previous trap calibration or complete understanding of the trapping dynamics. (more…)
An indispensable manual edited by Dr Arne Gennerich that includes cutting-edge methods and protocols, provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results and contains key notes and implementation advice from the experts. (more…)
The past 7th of June, The Japan Market Expansion Competition (JMEC) announced the winners of the JMEC 22 program at its annual JMEC Awards Ceremony at the Tokyo American Club.
We are very glad and proud to say that “Team 7″, 3rd Prize winners of JMEC 22, worked on our project !!! (more…)
Impetux has recently received the Innovative SME certification. This certification is awarded by the Spanish Economics and Competitiveness Ministry in recognition of the investment done in research.
IMPETUX wants to start the new year offering new services.
A new free loan service is now available for anyone who wants to test our optical force measurement systems. If you have your own optical tweezers and you are working on some experiments where you need to measure the forces applied while manipulating, these are your instruments.
