  • Multiplexed Biomimetic Lipid Membranes on Graphene by Dip-Pen Nanolithography
    ARTICLE Received 17 May 2013 | Accepted 10 Sep 2013 | Published 10 Oct 2013 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms3591 OPEN Multiplexed biomimetic lipid membranes on graphene by dip-pen nanolithography Michael Hirtz1,*, Antonios Oikonomou2,*, Thanasis Georgiou3, Harald Fuchs1,4 & Aravind Vijayaraghavan5 The application of graphene in sensor devices depends on the ability to appropriately func- tionalize the pristine graphene. Here we show the direct writing of tailored phospholipid membranes on graphene using dip-pen nanolithography. Phospholipids exhibit higher mobility on graphene compared with the commonly used silicon dioxide substrate, leading to well-spread uniform membranes. Dip-pen nanolithography allows for multiplexed assembly of phospholipid membranes of different functionalities in close proximity to each other. The membranes are stable in aqueous environments and we observe electronic doping of graphene by charged phospholipids. On the basis of these results, we propose phospholipid membranes as a route for non-covalent immobilization of various functional groups on graphene for applications in biosensing and biocatalysis. As a proof of principle, we demonstrate the specific binding of streptavidin to biotin-functionalized membranes. The combination of atomic force microscopy and binding experiments yields a consistent model for the layer organization within phospholipid stacks on graphene. 1 Institute of Nanotechnology (INT) and Karlsruhe Nano Micro Facility (KNMF), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Hermann-von-Helmholtz-Platz 1, 76344 Eggenstein-Leopoldshafen, Germany. 2 School of Computer Science and Centre for Mesoscience and Nanotechnology, The University of Manchester, Manchester M13 9PL, UK. 3 School of Physics and Astronomy, The University of Manchester, Manchester M13 9PL, UK. 4 Physical Institute and Center for Nanotechnology (CeNTech), University of Mu¨nster, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str.

  • Emerging Optical Nanoscopy Techniques
    Nanotechnology, Science and Applications Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article REVIEW Emerging optical nanoscopy techniques Paul C Montgomery Abstract: To face the challenges of modern health care, new imaging techniques with subcel- Audrey Leong-Hoi lular resolution or detection over wide fields are required. Far field optical nanoscopy presents many new solutions, providing high resolution or detection at high speed. We present a new Laboratoire des Sciences de l’Ingénieur, de l’Informatique et de classification scheme to help appreciate the growing number of optical nanoscopy techniques. l’Imagerie (ICube), Unistra-CNRS, We underline an important distinction between superresolution techniques that provide improved Strasbourg, France resolving power and nanodetection techniques for characterizing unresolved nanostructures. Some of the emerging techniques within these two categories are highlighted with applica- tions in biophysics and medicine. Recent techniques employing wider angle imaging by digital holography and scattering lens microscopy allow superresolution to be achieved for subcellular For personal use only. and even in vivo, imaging without labeling. Nanodetection techniques are divided into four subcategories using contrast, phase, deconvolution, and nanomarkers. Contrast enhancement is illustrated by means of a polarized light-based technique and with strobed phase-contrast Video abstract microscopy to reveal nanostructures. Very high sensitivity phase measurement using interfer-

  • Study of Optical Metallurgical Microscope Pdf
    Study of optical metallurgical microscope pdf Continue INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY KANPUR Division of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering Virtual Laboratories for Thermal Processing and Materials Characteristics Experiment 1 Microstructure Observation in Light-Optical Microscope Targets Of this laboratory is (i) familiarized with the functioning of the metallurgical microscope, and (ii) observe and interpret the microstructures of these samples. The theory of the microscope function is to turn an object into an image that usually increases to varying degrees. There are many complex techniques (such as electron microscopy) available to perform this transformation. However, the principles involved are just like those developed for light microscopes as far back as 4 centuries ago. The basic concept of any visualization system can be understood from the point of view of a light-optical microscope. The simplest optical microscope is a single convex lens or magnifying lens. There are two important classes of optical microscopes: the type of transmission and the type of reflection of microscopes. Optical mechanisms for these two classes of microscopes are shown in drawings 1.1a and 1.1b. The same two types occur in electron microscopy, which leads to the transmission of electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. An integral part of the optical microscope is the lighting system, which consists of a light source and a capacitor lens. The purpose of the capacitor is to focus the diverging beam of light from the source on a small portion of the sample (object A) studied. Most light microscopes use a two- lens system: the lens lens and the eyepiece (often referred to as the projector lens).

  • Fingering Instabilities in Dewetting Nanofluids

Notingher, and P.J. Moriarty The School of Physics and Astronomy, The University of Nottingham, Nottingham NG7 2RD, United Kingdom I. Vancea and U. Thiele School of Mathematics, Loughborough University, Leicestershire LE11 3TU, United Kingdom Max-Planck-Institut fu¨r Physik komplexer Systeme, No¨thnitzer Strasse 38, 01187 Dresden, Germany (Received 18 January 2008; published 30 April 2008) The growth of fingering patterns in dewetting nanofluids (colloidal solutions of thiol-passivated gold nanoparticles) has been followed in real time using contrast-enhanced video microscopy. The fingering instability on which we focus here arises from evaporatively driven nucleation and growth in a nano- scopically thin precursor solvent film behind the macroscopic contact line. We find that well-developed isotropic fingering structures only form for a narrow range of experimental parameters. Numerical simulations, based on a modification of the Monte Carlo approach introduced by Rabani et al. [Nature (London) 426, 271 (2003)], reproduce the patterns we observe experimentally. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.100.176102 PACS numbers: 68.05.Cf, 61.46.Df, 68.08.Bc A remarkable variety of systems in nature form striking substrates. Following solvent evaporation, the nanopar- branched structures which exhibit fractal properties [1,2]. ticles form a broad variety of self-organized patterns on Key examples include river beds [3], snowflakes [4], bac- the surface [15–18]. We carried out the deposition using a terial populations [2], and the ‘‘viscous fingering’’ patterns simple strategy which exploits the affinity of the solvent which form at the interface of fluids of different viscosity with a Teflon ring to form a meniscus of solution [19].

    Optical microscope 1 Optical microscope The optical microscope, often referred to as the "light microscope", is a type of microscope which uses visible light and a system of lenses to magnify images of small samples. Optical microscopes are the oldest and simplest of the microscopes. Digital microscopes are now available which use a CCD camera to examine a sample, and the image is shown directly on a computer screen without the need for optics such as eye-pieces. Other microscopic methods which do not use visible light include scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Optical configurations There are two basic configurations of the conventional optical microscope in use, the simple (one lens) and compound (many lenses). Digital microscopes are based on an entirely different system of collecting the reflected light from a sample. Light microscope A simple microscope is a microscope that uses only one lens for magnification, and is the original light microscope. Van Leeuwenhoek's microscopes consisted of a small, single converging lens mounted on a brass plate, with a screw mechanism to hold the sample or specimen to be examined. Demonstrations [1] by British microscopist have images from such basic instruments. Though now considered primitive, the use of a single, convex lens for viewing is still found in simple magnification devices, such as the magnifying glass, and the loupe. Light microscopes are able to view specimens in color, an important advantage when compared with electron microscopes, especially for forensic analysis, where blood traces may be important, for example. History It is difficult to say who invented the compound microscope.
