BoxCARS and pump-probe geometries are common implementations of two dimensional infrared (2D IR) spectroscopy. BoxCARS is background-free, generally offering greater signal to noise ratio, which enables measuring weak vibrational echo signals. Pulse shapers have been implemented in the pump probe geometry to accelerate…

Although additive manufacturing using multi-photon direct laser writing is nowadays considered as a major tool in the fabrication of future nano/micro-objects and optical components, it is currently limited by the low throughput of the writing process. To circumvent this issue, massive parallelization of the write…

The insulin receptor (IR) and the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R) are homodimeric transmembrane glycoproteins that transduce signals across the membrane on binding of extracellular peptide ligands. The structures of IR/IGF1R fragments in apo and liganded states have revealed that the extracellular…

For almost half a century, target-distractor similarity has been known to induce different visual search modes. When a target is highly salient, it can pop out, suggesting parallel processing of all items irrespective of set size. By contrast, high similarity among items requires item-by-item comparison with an…

Protein conformational landscapes contain the functionally relevant information useful for understanding biological processes. Mapping out conformational landscapes provides valuable insights into protein behaviors and biological phenomena, and has relevance to therapeutic design. While experimental structural biology…

Nociceptive afferent axons innervate the stomach and send signals to the brain and spinal cord. Peripheral nociceptive afferents can be detected with a variety of markers [e.g., substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)]. We recently examined the topographical organization and morphology of…

Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a neuroimaging technique that uses light at two different wavelengths in the near infrared spectrum to estimate cerebral hemodynamic response, based on concentration changes in both oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin. A multi-dimensional decomposition technique…

Metal nanoclusters (NCs) with a particle size of approximately 1 nm exhibit potential as highly active catalysts owing to their large specific surface areas and unique electronic structures. However, their precise synthesis in air is predominantly limited to coinage metal (Cu, Ag, and Au) NCs. Consequently, the…

Infrared light detection enables diverse technologies ranging from night vision to gas analysis. Emerging technologies such as low-cost cameras for self-driving cars require highly sensitive, low-cost photodetector cameras with spectral sensitivities up to wavelength of 10 um. For this purpose, colloidal quantum dot…
