An Ultrafast One-Step Quantitative Reverse Transcription–Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay for Detection of SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
We developed an ultrafast one-step RT-qPCR assay for SARS-CoV-2 detection, which can be completed in only 30 min on benchtop Bio-Rad CFX96. The assay significantly reduces the running time of conventional RT-qPCR: reduced RT step from 10 to 1 min, and ...

Evolving Stark Effect During Growth of Perovskite Nanocrystals Measured Using Transient Absorption

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2020
Methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI3) nanocrystals (NCs) are emerging materials for a range of optoelectronic applications. Photophysical characterization is typically limited to structurally stable NCs owing to the long timescales required for many ...

Ultrafast electron cooling in an expanding ultracold plasma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Here the authors report on the creation of ultracold plasma by photoionization of a Bose-Einstein condensate with a femtosecond laser pulse. The experimental setup grants direct access to the electron temperature and reveals ultrafast cooling of ...

Electron Dynamics in Anatase TiO2 Nanoparticles by Ultrafast Broadband Deep-Ultraviolet Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
The optical bandgap of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles is dominated by bulk absorption bands in the deep-ultraviolet due to strongly bound excitons. These spectral features can be utilized as a sensitive probe of carrier and lattice dynamics inside the TiO2 ...

All-Optical Modulation and Ultrafast Switching in MWIR with Sub-Wavelength Structured Silicon

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
We investigated and optimised the performance of the all-optical reflective modulation of the Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) signal by means of the optically-pumped sub-wavelength-structured optical membranes made of silicon.

Selective excitation of individual nanoantennas by pure spectral phase control in the ultrafast coherent regime

open access: yesNanophotonics, 2020
Coherent control is an ingenious tactic to steer a system to a desired optimal state by tailoring the phase of an incident ultrashort laser pulse. A relevant process is the two-photon–induced photoluminescence (TPPL) of nanoantennas, as it constitutes a ...

Effects of Crystal Morphology on the Hot-Carrier Dynamics in Mixed-Cation Hybrid Lead Halide Perovskites

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopies have proved to be an important tool for the investigation of charge carriers dynamics in perovskite materials providing crucial information on the dynamics of the excited carriers, and fundamental in the development of

Imaging acoustic waves in microscopic wedges

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
Using an ultrafast optical technique we image near-gigahertz flexural acoustic waves propagating in a thin gold wedge deposited on an ultrathin silicon nitride slab.
