Optimization of the Bulk Refractive Index Sensitivity of Silver NanoPrisms
The sensitivity and optical properties of silver nanoprisms (triangular plates with round-truncated corners) are investigated in this paper. Results of boundary element method simulations are compared...
PublicationsA Different, Nondestructive Method of Investigating In Situ Degradation in Hybrid Perovskite Solar Cells
One of the most significant impediments to the upscaling of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (HOIP) solar cells is poor stability. So, to effectively establish precautionary strategies, it is necessary...
PublicationsA Systematic Investigation of Image Pre-Processing on Image Classification
AI-powered image analysis is a transformative technology with immense potential to enhance diagnostics and patient care. Accurate medical image assessment plays a crucial role in disease detection and...
PublicationsNanobody-mediated neutralization of candidalysin preventsepithelial damage and inflammatory responses that drivevulvovaginal candidiasis pathogenesis
Candida albicans can cause mucosal infections in humans. This includes oropharyngeal candidiasis, which is commonly observed in human immunodeficiency virus infected patients, and vulvovaginal candidiasis...
PublicationsAn open-source, high-resolution, automated fluorescence microscope
Fluorescence microscopy is a fundamental tool in the life sciences, but the availability of sophisticated equipment required to yield high-quality, quantitative data is a major bottleneck in data production...
PublicationsParallel detection of multiple biomarkers in a point‑of‑care‑competent device for the prediction of exacerbations in chronic infammatory lung disease
Sudden aggravations of chronic inflammatory airway diseases are difficult-to-foresee life-threatening episodes for which advanced prognosis-systems are highly desirable. Here we present an experimental...
PublicationsResolution in super-resolution microscopy — definition, trade-offs and perspectives
Super-resolution microscopy (SRM) is gaining popularity in biosciences; however, claims about optical resolution are contested and often misleading. In this Viewpoint, experts share their views on resolution...
PublicationsCompetitive inhibition and mutualistic growth in co-infections: deciphering Staphylococcus aureus–Acinetobacter baumannii interaction dynamics
Staphylococcus aureus (Sa) and Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) are frequently co-isolated from polymicrobial infections that are severe and refractory to therapy. Here, we apply a combination of wet-lab experiments...
PublicationsVolcanic Eruption in the Nanoworld: Efficient Oxygen Exchange at the Si/SnO2 Interface
Here, a phenomenon of efficient oxygen exchange between a silicon surface and a thin layer of tin dioxide during chemical vapor deposition is presented, which leads to a unique Sn:SiO2 layer. Under thermodynamic...
PublicationsCalculating point spread functions: methods, pitfalls, and solutions
The knowledge of the exact structure of the optical system point spread function (PSF) enables a high-quality image reconstruction in fluorescence microscopy. Accurate PSF models account for the vector...
