Measurement of focusing properties for high numerical aperture optics using an automated submicron beamprofiler

, 2007
The focusing properties of three aspheric lenses with numerical aperture (NA) between 0.53 and 0.68 were directly measured using an interferometrically referenced scanning knife-edge beam profiler with sub-micron resolution.

Eigenvalue calibration methods for polarimetry [PDF]

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2012
Complex polarisation sensitive systems such as imaging Mueller matrix polarimeters are commonly calibrated using the eigenvalue calibration method. In this paper we present an extensive review of the method and an existing variant.

High numerical aperture multicomponent glass fiber

Applied Optics, 1980
High-numerical-aperture (N.A. 0.53) multicomponent glass fibers with 20 dB/km optical loss have been obtained. Glass containing BaO is most promising for fabrication of high-N.A. low-loss optical fibers over a wide wavelength region. The BaO-core glass/multicomponent-clad glass fibers show the following notable characteristics: relatively low optical ...

Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve
