Detection of a common odd aberration in confocal reflection microscopy by means of an edge scan (2019)
Journal Article

In reflection laser scanning microscopes, detection of odd aberrations is challenging because aberration cancellation can occur after the second passage of the light beam through the system. A method is proposed that uses a sample containing high spa... Read More about Detection of a common odd aberration in confocal reflection microscopy by means of an edge scan.

Peptide gels of fully-defined composition and mechanics for probing cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in vitro (2019)
Journal Article
Ashworth, J. C., Thompson, J. L., James, J. R., Slater, C. E., Pijuan-Galitó, S., Lis-Slimak, K., …Merry, C. L. (2020). Peptide gels of fully-defined composition and mechanics for probing cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in vitro. Matrix Biology, 85-86, 15-33. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matbio.2019.06.009

© 2019 Current materials used for in vitro 3D cell culture are often limited by their poor similarity to human tissue, batch-to-batch variability and complexity of composition and manufacture. Here, we present a “blank slate” culture environment base... Read More about Peptide gels of fully-defined composition and mechanics for probing cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in vitro.

Hybrid photonic-plasmonic platform for high-throughput single-molecule studies (2019)
Journal Article
Mossayebi, M., Parini, A., Wright, A. J., Somekh, M. G., Bellanca, G., & Larkins, E. C. (2019). Hybrid photonic-plasmonic platform for high-throughput single-molecule studies. Optical Materials Express, 9(6), 2511-2522. https://doi.org/10.1364/OME.9.002511

We present the design and numerical characterization of a hybrid photonic-plasmonic nanoresonator comprised of a 2D photonic crystal (PhC) cavity, a gold bowtie nanoantenna (BNA) and a silicon dioxide, SiO2, spacer. This device is designed to serve a... Read More about Hybrid photonic-plasmonic platform for high-throughput single-molecule studies.
