Nanometer vibration analysis of a target has been demonstrated by a self-aligned optical feedback vibrometry technique that uses a laser-diode-pumped microchip solid-state laser. The laser output waveform, which was modulated through interference between a lasing field and an extremely weak (<- 100-dB) frequency-modulated (FM) feedback field, was analyzed by the Hilbert transformation to yield the vibration waveform of the target. Experimental signal characteristics have been reproduced by numerical simulations. Real-time vibration measurement has also been achieved with a simple FM demodulation circuit.

Detection of analytes using streaming current has previously been explored using both experimental approaches and theoretical analyses of such data. However, further developments are needed for establishing a viable microchip that can be exploited to deliver a sensitive, robust, and scalable biosensor device. In this study, we demonstrated the fabrication of such a device on silicon wafer using a scalable silicon microfabrication technology followed by characterization and optimization of this sensor for detection of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) with sizes in the range of 30 to 200 nm, as determined by nanoparticle tracking analyses.

High heterogeneity in the membrane protein expression of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) means that bulk methods relying on antibody-based capture for expression analysis have a drawback that each type of antibody may capture a different sub-population. An improved approach is to capture a representative sEV population, without any bias, and then perform a multiplexed protein expression analysis on this population. However, such a possibility has been largely limited to fluorescence-based methods.

Microscale infrared thermal emitters are highly demanded in a variety of applications such as micro-molecular thermal sensing and micro-thermal imaging. In this paper, we propose a micro-meta-cavity array through combining nanohole metasurfaces and Fabry-Pérot (FP) cavity. Based on this design, integrated multiband micro-thermal emitters covering 7 - 9 μm and 10 - 14 μm wavelength ranges with high spatial resolution near wavelength scale has been theoretically and experimentally demonstrated simultaneously, providing the possibility for microscale infrared sources.

We developed a visible-red to near-infrared wavelength tunable all-solid-state laser system utilizing an optical parametric generation process in a MgO doped PPLN crystal pumped at 532 nm by an amplified and frequency doubled picosecond passively Q-switched Nd:YVO microchip laser. A broad bandwidth, tuneable over 300 nm between 710 nm to 1015 nm, is accessible. Depending on the green pump light pulse energy, pulses with durations down to 69 ps as well as pulses with energies above 2 µJ were achieved with kHz repetition rates.
