Capillary assembly is a versatile method for depositing colloidal particles within templates, resulting in nano/microarrays and colloidal superstructures for optical, plasmonic, and sensory applications. Liquid particles (LPs),...

We report the development of an integrated multi-functional imaging system capable of providing anatomical (optical coherence tomography, OCT), functional (OCT angiography, OCTA) and molecular imaging (light-induced...

Smart nanocarriers for the transport of drugs to tumor cells are nowadays of great interest for treating cancer. The use of enzymatic stimuli to cleave peptide-based drug nanocapsules for the selective release of nanocapsules...

Lipid bilayers assembled on solid substrates have been extensively studied with single-molecule resolution as the molecules diffuse in 2D, however the out-of-plane motion is typically ignored. Here we present sub-nanometer...

We report the spectrum of nitric oxide (NO) in the ultraviolet (UV) (225.4 – 227.0 nm) region based on cavity ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS). A cavity ringdown system, which consisted of a tunable UV laser source and a...

Computed tomographic (CT) peritoneography has been widely used as reference standard to evaluate continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis-related complications. However, given the varying CT peritoneography approaches used...

Straight leg raise (SLR) while supine increases intra-abdominal pressure. We hypothesized that elevations in intra-abdominal pressure would transmit into the thoracic cavity if the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) was...

Biological cells are complex environments that are densely packed with macromolecules and subdivided by membranes, both of which affect the rates of chemical reactions. It is well known that crowding reduces the volume available...

The 2 µm wavelength band has recently gained increased attention for potential applications in next-generation optical communication. However, it is still challenging to achieve effective photodetection in the 2 µm wavelength...
