Mesoporous silicon photonic crystal microparticles: towards single-cell optical biosensors.
In this paper we demonstrate the possibility of modifying porous silicon (PSi) particles with surface chemistry and recognition molecules (antibodies) such that these devices could potentially be used for single-cell identification or sensing. This is achieved by modifying PSi Rugate filters via hydrosilylation with surface chemistry that serves firstly, to protect the silicon surfaces from oxi...
متن کاملSilicon-based mesoporous photonic crystals: towards single cell optical biosensors
Mesoporous silicon (PSi) photonic crystals have attracted interest as biosensing transducers owing to their high quality optics and sensitivity in optical characteristics to changes in refractive index. We describe progress our group has made derivatizing PSi towards devices for biology and medicine. PSi rugate filters display a high reflectivity resonant line in the reflectance spectrum. As an...
متن کاملTowards real time diffuse optical tomography:
Parameter recovery in diffuse optical tomography is a computationally expensive algorithm, especially when used for large and complex volumes, as in the case of human brain functional imaging. The modeling of light propagation, also known as the forward problem, is the computational bottleneck of the recovery algorithm, whereby the lack of a real-time solution is impeding practical and clinical...
متن کاملSingle cell optical transfection.
The plasma membrane of a eukaryotic cell is impermeable to most hydrophilic substances, yet the insertion of these materials into cells is an extremely important and universal requirement for the cell biologist. To address this need, many transfection techniques have been developed including viral, lipoplex, polyplex, capillary microinjection, gene gun and electroporation. The current discussio...
متن کاملTowards Integrated Optical Coherence Tomography System on Silicon on Insulator
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an emerging optical imaging technology with ever growing number of applications. OCT enables micron scale cross-sectional imaging of subsurface microstructures by measuring the backscattered intensity of light from subsurface layers of the materials. Current OCT imaging systems are fiber or free space optics based and they can be miniaturized through integr...
