Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new dye that can strongly absorb second near-IR radiation and transform it to heat.

The team’s new compound can absorb electromagnetic waves in the NIR-II part of the spectrum, where waves can penetrate deeper into human tissue and generate heat, leading to photoacoustic emissions.

Engineers have invented a microscopic spectral sensor that can identify myriad materials with unprecedented accuracy.
