Gallium nitride (GaN) light-emitting-diode (LED) technology has been the revolution in
modern lighting. In the last decade, a huge global market of efficient, long-lasting, and …

High-resolution optical microscopy has traditionally relied on high-magnification and high–
numerical aperture objective lenses. In contrast, lensless microscopy can provide high …

Despite the rapid progress in optical imaging, most of the advanced microscopy modalities
still require complex and costly set-ups that unfortunately limit their use beyond well …

Modern biology increasingly relies on fluorescence microscopy, which is driving demand for
smaller, lighter, and cheaper microscopes. However, traditional microscope architectures …

Digital droplet reactors are useful as chemical and biological containers to discretize
reagents into picolitre or nanolitre volumes for analysis of single cells, organisms, or …

Malaria remains a major global health burden and new methods for low-cost, high-
sensitivity, diagnosis are essential, particularly in remote areas with low-resource around the …

Protein nanopores such as α-haemolysin and Mycobacterium smegmatis porin A (MspA)
can be used to sequence long strands of DNA at low cost. To provide high-speed …

Computational optical imaging is an emerging research field to realize specific imaging
functions and characteristics by jointly optimizing optical systems and signal processing. It is …

Quantitative phase microscopy (QPM), a technique combining phase imaging and
microscopy, enables visualization of the 3D topography in reflective samples, as well as the …

Photosynthesis begins when a network of pigment–protein complexes captures solar energy
and transports it to the reaction center, where charge separation occurs. When necessary …
