By using scattering in near field techniques, a microscope can be easily turned into a device measuring static and dynamic light scattering, very useful for the characterization of nanoparticle dispersions. Up to now, microscopy based…
Today, the area of point-of-care diagnostics is synonymous with paper microfluidics where cheap, disposable, and on-the-spot detection toolkits are being developed for a variety of chemical tests. In this work, we present a novel…
We studied the morphology of linear particle deposits obtained by inkjet-printing of silica nanoparticle suspension in drying condition where contact line depinning occurs. We show that this evaporation mode can be obtained by adjusting the…
A small depression is created in a straight optical fiber taper to form a local probe suitable for studying closely spaced, planar microphotonic devices. The tension of the "dimpled" taper controls the probe-sample interaction length and…
Periodic assemblies of nanoparticles are central to surface patterning, with applications in biosensing, energy conversion, and nanofabrication. Evaporation of colloidal droplets on substrates provides a simple yet effective route to…
We propose the use of wavelength-dependent spectroscopic absorption in the evanescent field of ultra-compact whispering gallery mode microspherical lasers as selective gas sensors and estimate few ppm detection sensitivity using a simple…
A silicon microstrip detector (SSD) has been developed to have state of the art spatial resolution and a large sensitive area under stringent power constraints. The design incorporates three floating strips with their bias resistors…
We propose to search for millicharged particles produced in high-intensity electron beam dumps using small ultralow-threshold sensors. As a concrete example, we consider a Skipper-CCD placed behind the beam dump in Hall A at Jefferson Lab.…
A novel micromixing technique that exploit a thrust of droplets into the mixing interface is developed. The technique enhances the mixing by injecting immiscible droplets in a mixing channel and the methodology enables a control of the…
An important aspect of examining printed documents for potential forgeries and copyright infringement is the identification of source printer as it can be helpful for ascertaining the leak and detecting forged documents. This paper proposes…
Micro-transfer printing is an assembly technology that enables large-scale integration of diverse materials and components from micro- to nano-scale. However, traditional micro-transfer printing technologies lack dynamic selectivity,…
Photonic crystal cavities (PhCCs) can confine optical fields in ultra-small volumes, enabling efficient light-matter interactions for quantum and non-linear optics, sensing and all-optical signal processing. The inherent nanometric…
We demonstrate a facile technique to scratch, manipulate, and solder exfoliated flakes of layered 2D materials using a microneedle probe attached to the precision xyz manipulators under an optical microscope. We show that the probe can be…
We demonstrate a new versatile method for 3D super-resolution microscopy by using a deformable mirror to shape the point spread function of our microscope in a continuous and controllable way. We apply this for 3D STORM imaging of…
We report the development of a novel measurement system designed to measure bubble properties in bubble curtains (i.e. planar bubble plumes) in-situ alongside acoustical measurements. Our approach is based on electrical, contact-based…
Micro-channel plate (MCP)-based photodetectors are capable of picosecond level time resolution and sub-mm level position resolution, which makes them a perfect candidate for the next generation large area photodetectors. The large-area…
We demonstrate femtosecond pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy using a programmable dispersive filter as an ultra-fast delay line. Combined with fast synchronous detection this delay line allows for recording of 6 ps decay traces…
Liquid dispensing and writing in the extremely small size regime are important for applications in many current technologies, such as micro/nano fabrication, biological/chemical patterning and analysis, and drug discovery. Most of current…
We report an optimized two-step thermopolymerization process carried out in contact with micropatterned molds that yields porous phenolic resin dual-use stamps with topographically micropatterned contact surfaces. With these stamps, two…
Micron-sized hard core-soft shell hybrid microgels are promising model systems for studies of soft matter as they enable in-situ optical investigations and their structures/morphologies can be engineered with a great variety. Yet, protocols…
