Microparticles with defined fluorescence lifetime for use as standard

Erny Niederberger from Swisens, is the project manager of this idea, with Stefano Cattaneo from CSEM.

At the end of the 6-month feasibility study conducted jointly with

• Benoit CROUZY, Office fédéral de Météorologie et climatologie MétéoSuisse
• Konstantina VASILATOU, Institut fédéral de métrologie METAS
• Martin GALLAGHER, University of Manchester
• Bernadett WEINZIERL, University of Vienna

The problematic behind this project is that they have measurement instrument that measure the fluorescence lifetime of particles which are flying trough this instrument. So they are in movement and to verify this instrument, they needed particles with defined fluorescence lifetime. Until now, this wasn’t available.
