Fluorescence crosstalk reduction by modulated excitation-synchronous acquisition for multispectral analysis in high-throughput droplet microfluidics

Christoph Merten, Jatin Panwar

Crosstalk between fluorescent biomarkers significantly limits the resolution of multispectral fluorescence analysis in real-time droplet-microfluidics applications. The crosstalk is a result of overlapping emission and excitation spectra of different fluor ...

Precise and accurate image-based measurements of optical material properties

Marjan Shahpaski

The appearance of objects is governed by how they reflect, transmit and absorb the light they receive. That, in turn, depends on the material's internal structure, surface structure, and viewing and illumination directions. Changes in those characteristics ...

Quantitative intrinsic auto-cathodoluminescence can resolve spectral signatures of tissue-isolated collagen extracellular matrix

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Hans Mattias Larsson, Elif Vardar, Marcin Stefan Zielinski, Ganesh Vythilingam

By analyzing isolated collagen gel samples, we demonstrated in situ detection of spectrally deconvoluted auto-cathodoluminescence signatures of specific molecular content with precise spatial localization over a maximum field of view of 300 mu m. Correlati ...

Combined Rehabilitation Promotes the Recovery of Structural and Functional Features of Healthy Neuronal Networks after Stroke

Silvestro Micera, Stefano Lai, Francesco Saverio Pavone

Rehabilitation is considered the most effective treatment for promoting the recovery of motor deficits after stroke. One of the most challenging experimental goals is to unambiguously link brain rewiring to motor improvement prompted by rehabilitative ther ...

Exploring information retrieval using image sparse representations : from circuit designs and acquisition processes to specific reconstruction algorithms

William Guicquéro

New advances in the field of image sensors (especially in CMOS technology) tend to question the conventional methods used to acquire the image. Compressive Sensing (CS) plays a major role in this, especially to unclog the Analog to Digital Converters which ...

Non-linear Low-rank and Sparse Representation for Hyperspectral Image Analysis

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Devis Tuia, Frank Grégoire Jean de Morsier, Volker Gass, Maurice Borgeaud

In this paper, we tackle the problem of unsupervised classification of hyperspectral images. We propose a clustering method based on graphs representing the data structure, which is assumed to be an union of multiple manifolds. The method constraints the p ...

Distributed Compressed Sensing of Hyperspectral Images via Blind Source Separation

Pierre Vandergheynst, Mohammad Golbabaee

This paper describes a novel framework for compressive sampling (CS) of multichannel signals that are highly dependent across the channels. In this work, we assume few number of sources are generating the multichannel observations based on a linear mixture ...

Realization and study of InAs/GaAs quantum dot superluminescent diodes emitting at 1.3µm

Marco Rossetti

A quantum dot is a semiconductor nanostructure that confines the motion of conduction band electrons and valence band holes in all three spatial directions, thus creating fully discrete energy levels. The confinement in the InAs/GaAs material system is gen ...
