Charge transport in molecular junctions: From tunneling to hopping with the probe technique [PDF]
We demonstrate that a simple phenomenological approach can be used to simulate electronic conduction in molecular wires under thermal effects induced by the surrounding environment. This “Landauer-Büttiker’s probe technique” can properly replicate different transport mechanisms, phase coherent nonresonant tunneling, ballistic behavior, and hopping ...

Sub-microscopic schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminths in school children: molecular diagnostic evidence and implications for disease elimination [PDF]
Schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminthiasis elimination programmes depend heavily on microscopic diagnostics, yet these methods may fail to detect low-intensity infections that sustain transmission.

Studies of Molecular Motions in Acylchitin Films by Means of Spin-Probe Technique [PDF]
The molecular motions in acylated chitins, including acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, caproyl, capryl, lauroyl, and benzoylchitin, were investigated by ESR measurements with 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-hydroxypiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) as a spin-probe. Introduction of a longer side chain into the chitin molecule resulted in a remarkable lowering of the temperature

Molecular contrast in optical coherence tomography using a pump-probe technique and a optical switch suppression technique [PDF]
We describe two novel technique for contrast enhancement in optical coherence tomography (OCT) which enables molecular specific imaging. The first, a pump-probe technique, is employed in which a pulsed pump laser is tuned to ground-state absorption in a molecule of interest.

Assessing temporal and spatial variability in Pfiesteria piscicida distributions using molecular probing techniques [PDF]
The toxic dinoflagellate Pfiesteria piscicida has been identified in coastal waters and estuaries along the Atlantic coast of the United States. Estuaries in the mid-Atlantic region, in partic- ular, have been targeted as high-risk areas for toxic blooms since reports of Pfiesteria-related fish kills in the Pocomoke River, Maryland, in 1997.

Probing Molecular Dynamics with Non-linear Optical Techniques
The dynamics of molecules in the gas and liquid phase is investigated using ultrafast optical techniques. The development of sub-25 fs ultrafast sources using noncollinear optical parametric amplification is discussed. These intense pulses are utilized in coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering to investigate vibrational motion in I2 Br2 and IBr.
