Resolution and penetration depth of reflection-mode time-domain near infrared optical tomography using a ToF SPAD camera

Edoardo Charbon, Jingjing Jiang, Martin Wolf

In a turbid medium such as biological tissue, near-infrared optical tomography (NIROT) can image the oxygenation, a highly relevant clinical parameter. To be an efficient diagnostic tool, NIROT has to have high spatial resolution and depth sensitivity, fas ...

On the Response Speed of Narrowband Organic Optical Upconversion Devices

Frank Nüesch, Roland Hany, Surendra Babu Anantharaman, Wei-Hsu Hu, Matthias Diethelm

Organic upconversion devices (OUCs) consist of an organic infrared photodetector and an organic visible light-emitting diode (OLED), connected in series. OUCs convert photons from the infrared to the visible and are of use in applications such as process c ...

Recent advances in superconducting nanowire single-photon detector technology for exoplanet transit spectroscopy in the mid-infrared

Simone Frasca

The Origins Space Telescope mission concept includes an exoplanet transit spectrometer that requires detector arrays with ultrahigh pixel-to-pixel stability. Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors, or SNSPDs, have the potential to meet these stri ...

Tailored on-chip mid-IR light generation and application for gas spectroscopy

Camille Sophie Brès, Davide Grassani, Eirini Tagkoudi

In this contribution, we present how coherent supercontinuum generation in Si3N4 waveguides enabled by fiber laser pumping can be tailored to cover part of the mid-IR spectrum and the use of such sources in spectroscopy. ...

Black carbon and dust in the Third Pole glaciers: revaluated concentrations, mass absorption cross-sections and contributions to glacier ablation

Yang Li, Julia Schmale, Xinyang Li

In snow and ice, light-absorbing particles (LAPs), such as black carbon (BC) and dust, accelerate the melting of Third Pole glaciers (TPGs). In this study, we revaluated LAP concentrations in the snow pits of TPGs (SP-TPGs), measured LAP mass absorption cr ...

Shear and Breathing Modes of Layered Materials

Nicola Marzari, Giovanni Pizzi, Marco Gibertini

Layered materials (LMs), such as graphite, hexagonal boron nitride, and transition-metal dichalcogenides, are at the center of an ever-increasing research effort, due to their scientific and technological relevance. Raman and infrared spectroscopies are ac ...

Dark-level trapping, lateral confinement, and built-in electric field contributions to the carrier dynamics in c-plane GaN/AlN quantum dots emitting in the UV range

Nicolas Grandjean, Raphaël Butté, Sebastian Pascal Tamariz Kaufmann

c-plane GaN/AlN quantum dots (QDs) are promising zero-dimensional quantum nanostructures that exhibit single photon emission properties up to room temperature and even above. In this context, it is of prime interest to gain a deeper insight into the recomb ...

n-photon blockade with an n-photon parametric drive

Fabrizio Minganti, Wei Qin

We propose a mechanism to engineer an n-photon blockade in a nonlinear cavity with an n-photon parametric drive lambda(adagger n + an). When an n-photon-excitation resonance condition is satisfied, the presence of n photons in the cavity suppress ...

Efficient ab initio semiclassical dynamics for linear and nonlinear electronic spectroscopy

Tomislav Begusic

Molecular spectroscopy is an essential experimental technique in both fundamental physical sciences and applied research. For example, electronic spectroscopy, in which light induces a change in the electronic state of a molecule, is a powerful tool for st ...

A hybrid erbium(III)-bacteriochlorin near-infrared probe for multiplexed biomedical imaging

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Zhiyong Liu, Fan Zhang, Ting Wang

Spectrally distinct fluorophores are desired for multiplexed bioimaging. In particular, monitoring biological processes in living mammals needs fluorophores that operate in the 'tissue-transparent' near-infrared (NIR) window, that is, between 700 and 1,700 ...

Broadband visible two-dimensional spectroscopy of molecular dyes

Majed Chergui, Andre Al Haddad, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Two-dimensional Fourier transform spectroscopy is a promising technique to study ultrafast molecular dynamics. Similar to transient absorption spectroscopy, a more complete picture of the dynamics requires broadband laser pulses to observe transient change ...
