Refractometry of organosilica microspheres [PDF]
The refractive index of novel organosilica (nano/micro)material is determined using two methods. The first method is based on analysis of optical extinction efficiency of organosilica beads versus wavelength, which is obtained by a standard laboratory ...

Material Limitations on the Detection Limit in Refractometry [PDF]
We discuss the detection limit for refractometric sensors relying on high-Q optical cavities and show that the ultimate classical detection limit is given by min {Δn} ≳ η with n + iη being the complex refractive index of the material under refractometric

Highly Sensitive Measurement of the Refractive Index of Mesoporous Hollow Silica Microcapsules Using Whispering Gallery Mode Resonances [PDF]
Monodisperse mesoporous hollow silica microcapsules present unique opportunities for advanced optical characterization due to their tunable nanostructure, high porosity and easy functionalization.

Immunity transfer in mule foals fed with good IgG quality colostrum [PDF]
While the passive transfer of immunity in horse and donkey foals has been extensively studied, there is limited information for mule foals. Immunoglobulin type G (IgG) and serum total protein concentration (TP) were assessed at different sampling times ...

Topological phase structures of conical refraction beams: expanding orbital angular momentum applications for nanoscale biosensing. [PDF]
Abstract Topologically structured light carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) has emerged as a powerful tool for nano‐photonics and biomedical optics, yet conventional integer‐charge Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) beams suffer from rotational degeneracy that limits diagnostic precision.

Critical Angle Refractometry for Lossy Media with a Priori Known Extinction Coefficient
Critical angle refractometry is an established technique for determining the refractive index of liquids and solids. For transparent samples, the critical angle refractometry precision is limited by incidence angle resolution.
