Kinesin‐Driven De‐Mixing of Cytoskeleton Composites Drives Emergent Mechanical Properties

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 46, Issue 14, July 18, 2025.
Optical tweezers microrheology and fluorescence microscopy is coupled with simulations and mathematical modeling to discover that active cytoskeleton composites exhibit a rich ensemble of emergent mechanical response characteristics, from yielding to stiffening, governed by kinesin‐driven restructuring from well‐mixed interpenetrating double‐networks ...

Visualized multiprobe electrical impedance measurements with STM tips using shear force feedback control

open access: yes, 2017
Here we devise a multiprobe electrical measurement system based on quartz tuning forks (QTFs) and metallic tips capable of having full 3D control over the position of the probes.

Nanodiamond arrays on glass for quantification and fluorescence characterisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Quantifying the variation in emission properties of fluorescent nanodiamonds is important for developing their wide-ranging applicability. Directed self-assembly techniques show promise for positioning nanodiamonds precisely enabling such quantification.

Coupled fiber taper extraction of 1.53 um photoluminescence from erbium doped silicon nitride photonic crystal cavities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Optical fiber tapers are used to collect photoluminescence emission at ~1.5 um from photonic crystal cavities fabricated in erbium doped silicon nitride on silicon. Photoluminescence collection via fiber taper is enhanced 2.5 times relative to free space,

Multimodal Purcell enhancement and optical coherence of Eu3+ ions in a single nanoparticle coupled to a microcavity

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 14, Issue 11, Page 1817-1826, June 2025.
Abstract Europium‐doped nanocrystals constitute a promising material for a scalable future quantum computing platform. Long‐lived nuclear spin states could serve as qubits addressed via coherent optical transitions. In order to realize an efficient spin‐photon interface, we couple the emission from a single nanoparticle to a fiber‐based microcavity ...

Transient Absorption Microscopy Maps Spatial Heterogeneity and Distinct Chemical Environments in Photocatalytic Carbon Nitride Particles

open access: yesSmall, Volume 21, Issue 5, February 5, 2025.
The complex charge carrier dynamics of promising carbon nitride photocatalysts make optimization challenging. Here spatial heterogeneity is discovered using transient absorption microscopy on carbon nitride particles from the same synthetic batch. This indicates that there are at least two distinct defect types that control the charge carrier dynamics,
