Quantum properties in atom-thick semiconductors offer new way to detect electrical signals in cells.

By tracking changes in the material's photoluminescence, the researchers could map electrical activity of heart muscle cells in real time, at speeds unmatched by any other imaging technology to date.

Fabrication of the devices was performed at the San Diego Nanotechnology Infrastructure ( SDNI ) at UC San Diego , a member of the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure , which is supported by the NSF .
