Cell imaging by phonon microscopy: sub-optical wavelength ultrasound for non-invasive imaging (2017)
Journal Article
Perez-Cota, F., Smith, R. J., Moradi, E., Leija, A. L., Velickovic, K., Marques, L., …Clark, M. (2017). Cell imaging by phonon microscopy: sub-optical wavelength ultrasound for non-invasive imaging

The mechanical properties of cells play an important role in cell function and behavior. This paper presents recent developments that have enabled the use of laser-generated phonons (ultrasound) with sub-optical wavelengths to look inside living cell...

Size characterisation method and detection enhancement of plasmonic nanoparticles in a pump–probe system (2017)
Journal Article
Fuentes-Domínguez, R., Smith, R. J., Pérez-Cota, F., Marques, L., Peña-Rodríguez, O., & Clark, M. (2017). Size characterisation method and detection enhancement of plasmonic nanoparticles in a pump–probe system. Applied Sciences, 7(8), Article 819. https://doi.org/10.3390/app7080819

The optical resonance of metal nanoparticles can be used to enhance the generation and detection of their main vibrational mode. In this work, we show that this method allows the accurate characterisation of the particle’s size because the vibrationa...
