Patents by Inventor Thomas S. BISCHOF

Thomas S. BISCHOF has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) fluorescence in vivo and intravital imaging with semiconductor nanocrystals
    Patent number: 11077213
    Abstract: InAs based core-shell particles which leads to tunable, narrow emitting semiconductor nanocrystals with a very high quantum yield which can be preserved in physiological buffers with long stability can used for short wavelength infrared (SWIR) imaging. Increased resolution with reduced read time and increased imaging frequency can provide advantages in in vivo applications.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 22, 2014
    Date of Patent: August 3, 2021
    Assignee: MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
    Inventors: Moungi G. Bawendi, Daniel K. Harris, Oliver T. Bruns, Thomas S. Bischof
