Photonic Crystal Enhanced Microscopy on a 2D Photonic Crystal Surface

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This work demonstrates the design, fabrication, and the first‐time test of a 2D photonic crystal surface for photonic resonator absorption microscopy. The designed surface uniformly enhances electromagnetic near fields, achieving > 100% improved detecting uniformity for surface‐captured AuNPs from a blocking biosensor assay aimed for detecting SARS‐CoV‐

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.

The Influence of the Supporting Substrate on Single‐Particle Circular Differential Scattering of DNA Assembled Nanorod Dimers

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
For most microscopy measurements the sample is placed on a substrate, which causes symmetry breaking, especially relevant for chiral plasmonic nanostructures. DNA origami mediated X‐shaped AuNR dimers showing high structural purity in solution, exhibit significant diversity in lineshapes and signal intensities for their circular differential scattering

Self‐Assembled Physical Unclonable Function Labels Based on Plasmonic Coupling

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This article introduces advanced anti‐counterfeit labels crafted through DNA‐guided self‐assembly of plasmonic nanoparticles. Utilizing nanosphere lithography for dense and precise nanoparticle placement, these labels feature unique, unclonable optical signatures achieved through plasmonic coupling, detectable by an economical 3D‐printed dark field ...
