The diffraction patterns of fixed fluorophores are characteristic of the orientation of the molecules' underlying dipole. Fluorescence localization microscopy techniques such as PALM and STORM achieve super-resolution by sequentially imaging sparse subsets ...

X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) provides an opportunity to study the dynamics of systems by measuring the temporal fluctuations in a far-field diffraction pattern. A two-dimensional detector system has been developed to investigate fluctuation ...
We show nanometer-level localization accuracy of a single quantum-dot in three dimensions by self-interference and diffraction-pattern analysis. We believe that this approach has the capacity to push optical microscopy to the molecular level. ...
Dislocations are known for their peculiar effects on the diffraction profiles. Each given dislocation type, produces specific anisotropic line broadening basically determined by the so-called contrast factor (CF). Owing to the lack of a suitable mathematic ...
This thesis explores the properties of the transmission of light through subwavelength slits in metal films. Theoretical and experimental studies on the transmission through slits in metals are presented. In addition, the potential use of these slits for d ...
The integrated intensity of the diffracted beams present on microdiffraction precession patterns can be used to infer the 'ideal' symmetry, i.e. the symmetry which takes into account both the position and the intensity of the diffracted beams on a diffract ...
A theoretical approach based on coupled-mode theory is presented in order to determine the radiation pattern of LEDs incorporating a shallow photonic crystal. From this, a fundamental limit for the directionality of the diffraction of a single guided mode ...
We show nanometer-level localization accuracy of a single quantum-dot in three dimensions by self-interference and diffraction-pattern analysis. We believe that this approach has the capacity to push optical microscopy to the molecular level. ...
We report on a new, multi-functional second harmonic generation digital holographic microscope that allows retrieval of an object complex diffraction wavefront at both second harmonic and fundamental wavelengths. ...
Thin film silicon solar cells are an attractive option for the production of sustainable energy but their low response at long wavelengths requires additional measures for absorption enhancement. The most successful concepts are based on light scattering i ...
