Optothermal Needle‐Free Injection of Vaterite Nanocapsules
Advanced Science, 2023 AbstractThe propulsion and acceleration of nanoparticles with light have both fundamental and applied significance across many disciplines. Needle‐free injection of biomedical nano cargoes into living tissues is among the examples. Here a new physical mechanism of laser‐induced particle acceleration is explored, based on abnormal optothermal expansion ...

Golden Vaterite as a Mesoscopic Metamaterial for Biophotonic Applications [PDF]
Advanced Materials, 2021 AbstractMesoscopic photonic systems with tailored optical responses have great potential to open new frontiers in implantable biomedical devices. However, biocompatibility is typically a problem, as engineering of optical properties often calls for using toxic compounds and chemicals, unsuitable for in vivo applications.

Vaterite Stability in the Presence of Chromate [PDF]
Spectroscopy Letters, 2011 Vaterite aggregates grown in Cr(VI)-bearing silica gel were studied by combining scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. All the vaterite samples were spherical aggregates consisting of lens-shaped individuals, and their morphology was distinctive for vaterite.
