Angle-and polarization-dependent collective excitation of plasmonic nanoarrays for surface enhanced infrared spectroscopy

Hatice Altug, Shyamsunder Erramilli, Kai Chen

Our recent work has showed that diffractively coupled nanoplasmonic arrays for Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy can enhance the Amide I protein vibrational stretch by up to 10(5) times as compared to plain substrates. In this work we con ...

Full-field microimaging with 8 keV X-rays achieves a spatial resolutions better than 20 nm

Giorgio Margaritondo

Fresnel zone plates (450 nm thick Au, 25 nm outermost zone width) used as objective lenses in a full field transmission reached a spatial resolution better than 20 nm and 1.5% efficiency with 8 keV photons. Zernike phase contrast was also realized without ...

Dark field optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Christophe Pache, Martin Villiger

The invention relates to an optical coherence microscopy system for fast, phase resolved imaging by means of optical coherence microscopy with decoupled illumination and detection apertures, producing a dark-field effect with an enhanced optical contrast. ...

Microlenses with defined contour shapes

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

Ink-jet printing of optical ink over SU-8 pillars is here proposed as a technology for obtaining microlenses with shape control. To demonstrate the flexibility of this method, microlenses with five different contour shapes (ranging from circular and ellipt ...

Hybrid polymer microlens arrays with high numerical apertures fabricated using simple ink-jet printing technique

Jürgen Brugger, Edoardo Charbon, Vahid Fakhfouri, Dmitri Boiko, Joo Yeon Kim, Nils Benedict Brauer

Microlens arrays fabricated by a direct ink-jet printing of UV-curable hybrid polymer are reported. A periodic pattern of polymer drops was ink-jet printed on the surface-treated glass substrate and cured in the UV-light. Using this simple technique, we de ...

An X-ray computed tomography-based index to characterize the quality of cataclastic carbonate rock samples

Aurèle Parriaux, Pascal Turberg, Reto Meuli, Vincent Labiouse, Pierre Guillaume Christe

X-ray computed tomography (XRCT) can reconstruct, in a nondestructive way and in three-dimension, the distribution of densities within opaque materials. Consequently, it provides an effective possibility to characterize the inner content of rock core sampl ...

Coherent transfer functions and extended depth of field

Theo Lasser, Christophe Pache, Rainer Leitgeb, Martin Villiger

To preserve the speed advantage of Fourier Domain detection in Optical Coherence Microscopy (OCM), extended depth of field is needed. With a narrow probing volume that extends over a long axial range, tissue could be measured in vivo and at cellular resolu ...

SwissCube: The First Entirely-Built Swiss Student Satellite with an Earth Observation Payload

Maurice Borgeaud, Noémy Scheidegger, Ted Choueiri, Fabien Jordan, Nicolas Steiner

In 2006, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) in cooperation with other Swiss academic and industrial partners started the Swiss Cube project based on the Cube Sat program. The primary objective of the Swiss Cube project is to provide a dynamic ...

Extended depth-of-focus by digital holographic microscopy

Christian Depeursinge, Tristan Colomb, Etienne Cuche, Nicolas Pavillon, Jonas Kühn

A recurrent problem in microscopy is the finite depth-of-focus linked to the NA of microscope objectives. Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) has the unique feature of being able to numerically change the focus from a single hologram without the need of m ...

Ultrasharp carbon whisker optical fiber probes for scanning near-field optical microscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Mounir Driss Mensi

We report the growth of ultrasharp carbon whiskers onto apertured near-field optical glass fiber probes. The ultrasharp carbon whiskers are produced by the electron-assisted dissociation of residual oil vapors present in the vacuum chamber during the elect ...
