Toward identification and characterization of molecular interactions in living cells: Quantifying molecular colocalization in live cell fluorescence microscopy.
Perpendicular geometry for better photoacoustic images
A new approach based on bidirectional scanning improves the imaging performance of optoacoustic imaging to quasi-isotropic transverse resolution.
New endoscopic technique provides label-free contrast of tissue
A flexible wide-field endoscope utilising blue excitation light provides label-free contrast of tissue based on fluorescence lifetime imaging of tissue autofluorescence. Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) of tissue autofluorescence has been shown to provide...
Solar Refinery: Can we have our carbon cake and eat it too?
Professor Ozin explores the feasability of a solar refinery for making fuels and chemicals from CO2, H2O and sunlight.
Microstructures by Design
X-ray imaging and controlled solidification is used to watch and understand how crystals evolve in metals.
Low-cost, large-area plasmonic perfect absorbers
Tunable, angle- and polarization independent absorber fabricated using a combination of colloidal lithography, with disordered arrangement, and dry-etching.
