A combined radial collimator and cooled beryllium filter for neutron scattering

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Felix Groitl

A flexible, combined, radial collimator and beryllium (Be) filter have been designed and manufactured at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI), Switzerland. The Be is integrated in the radial collimator by placing thin Be slices between the collimator lamellas. ...

Enhanced resolution in a multimode fiber imaging system

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Nicolino Stasio, Grégoire Pierre Jean Laporte

Multimode fibers have recently been demonstrated to be a promising candidate for ultrathin and high resolution endoscopy. However, this method does not offer depth discrimination for fluorescence imaging and the numerical aperture of the fiber limits its r ...

Organic-inorganic-hybrid-polymer microlens arrays with tailored optical characteristics and multi-focal properties

Jürgen Brugger, Victor Javier Cadarso Busto, Loïc Jacot-Descombes

Plano-convex microlens arrays of organic-inorganic polymers with tailored optical properties are presented. The fine-tuning of each microlens within an array is achieved by confining inkjet printed drops of the polymeric ink onto pre-patterned substrates. ...

Dual-band plasmonic resonator based on Jerusalem cross-shaped nanoapertures

Hatice Altug, Arif Engin Cetin, Shyamsunder Erramilli

In this paper, we both experimentally and numerically introduce a dual-resonant metamaterial based on subwavelength Jerusalem cross-shaped apertures. We numerically investigate the physical origin of the dual-resonant behavior, originating from the constit ...

Digital confocal microscopy through a multimode fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Salma Farahi, Alexandre Goy

Acquiring high-contrast optical images deep inside biological tissues is still a challenging problem. Confocal microscopy is an important tool for biomedical imaging since it improves image quality by rejecting background signals. However, it suffers from ...

Numerical correction of anti-symmetric aberrations in single HRTEM images of weakly scattering 2D-objects

Andras Kis, Ming-Wei Chen

Here, we present a numerical post-processing method for removing the effect of anti-symmetric residual aberrations in high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images of weakly scattering 2D-objects. The method is based on applying the same ...

Multi-resonant compact nanoaperture with accessible large nearfields

Hatice Altug, Arif Engin Cetin, Serap Aksu, Dordaneh Etezadi

We present a compact and multi-resonant aperture system supporting large local electromagnetic fields, which is highly advantageous for applications demanding high signal-to-noise ratio. The system is composed of subwavelength H-shaped apertures with exten ...

On the mechanism of the Gent–McWilliams instability of a columnar vortex in stratified rotating fluids

Eunok Yim

In stably stratified and rotating fluids, an axisymmetric columnar vortex can be unstable to a special instability with an azimuthal wavenumber m=1 which bends and slices the vortex into pancake vortices (Gent & McWilliams Geophys. Astrophys. Fluid Dyn., v ...

Research in the field of single biopolymers using scanning probe microscopy

Andrey Mikhaylov

Current thesis is devoted to the investigation of biopolymers using AFM, a well established and widely used technique. To begin with, we studied processing of AFM images and its automation. Our software product, DNA Trace, permit one to quickly extract sci ...
