Nahfeld-Mikroskopie und -Spektroskopie an biologischen und medizinischen Systemen

该提案的主要目的是使用近场显微镜和光谱学研究生物和医疗系统中电磁场的局部效应，涵盖从微波和毫米范围（GHz至THz）到红外范围的广泛波长。一方面，这需要开发新的高效微米尺寸和亚微米尺寸的近场探针，以将这些方法的分辨率提高到单个细胞或几个细胞。另一方面，我们计划在电磁频谱的不同区域进行系统的研究，给出补充信息，从而导致新的成像方法和可能的新的生物医学应用。该提案是一个国际性的跨学科项目，对多个领域产生了重大影响。除了广泛交流样本、科学家和技术诀窍外，与生物和医学部门的密切合作也至关重要。这一三方建议的最终目标是在圣城大学建立一个实验物理和生物医学研究方面的有力研究方案。

The main purpose of the proposal is to study local effects of electromagnetic fields in biological and medical systems using near-field microscopy and spectroscopy spanning a wide range of wavelengths from the microwave and millimeter range (GHz to THz) to the infrared range. This requires, an the one hand, the development of new highly efficient micron-size and submicron-size near-field probes to increase the resolution of these methods down to a single cell or a few cells. Ort the other hand, we plan systematic investigations an well-defined model systems at different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum giving complementary information which lead to new imaging methods and possibly new biomedical applications. The proposal is an international and interdisciplinary project with a large impact an a number of fields. Beside an extensive exchange of samples, scientists and know-how technicalities, a strong collaboration with the biology and medical departments is essential. The final goal of this trilateral proposal is to establish a vigorous research program in experimental physics and bio-medical research at Al-Quds University.
