Imaging applications surfaces

Examples of semiconductor applications include the imaging of surface coatings to determine uniformity and the imaging of submicron processed features. [Pg.704]

The second requirement is related to chemical imaging applications. Very flat samples are required to avoid problems of depth of field. Even if this is common to every imaging technique, it is in this case coupled with surface pollution problems. Sample preparation must then lead to flat surfaces without surface pollution. For cultural heritage samples,... [Pg.436]

The polyvalent nature of dendrimers has been investigated as vehicles for carrying multiple chelator groups to enhance signals in various imaging applications (Barthand Soloway, 1994 Yoo et al., 1999 Kobayashi et al., 2000, 2001 Sato et al., 2001). In addition, in certain chelate-dendrimer constructs, excess amines on the dendrimer surface can aid in the cellular uptake process through charge-mediated endocytosis. [Pg.383]

The Scanning Tunneling Microscope has demonstrated unique capabilities for the examination of electrode topography, the vibrational spectroscopic imaging of surface adsorbed species, and the high resolution electrochemical modification of conductive surfaces. Here we discuss recent progress in electrochemical STM. Included are a comparison of STM with other ex situ and in situ surface analytic techniques, a discussion of relevant STM design considerations, and a semi-quantitative examination of faradaic current contributions for STM at solution-covered surfaces. Applications of STM to the ex situ and in situ study of electrode surfaces are presented. [Pg.174]

With the example of stained E. coli cells, the squaraine rotaxane 15b containing a zinc(II)-dipicolylamine (Zn-DPA) ligand, which is known to selectively associate with the anionic surfaces of bacterial cells, was found to be almost 100 times more photostable as compared to Cy5-Zn-DPA [55]. This can be attributed to stronger cell-surface affinity of 15b, leading to a slower off rate for the probe. The remarkable stability of 15b permits fluorescence imaging experiments that are impossible with probes based on conventional NIR cyanine dyes such as Cy5. Squaraine rotaxanes are likely to be superior substitutes for conventional cyanine dyes for biomedical imaging applications that require NIR fluorescent probes. [Pg.171]

While Au nanorods and other NIR-active nanoparticles have untapped potential for clinical in vivo imaging applications, the focus at present is on preclinical in vitro studies to better ascertain the biological effects of these nanomaterials. Surface chemistry becomes a critical issue, as it determines the biocompatibility, dispersion stability, and site-directed targeting of nanoparticles. For example, Au nanorods coated with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), a cationic surfactant used during nanorod synthesis, are internalized by KB cells via a nonspecific uptake pathway within hours of its addition to the culture medium, and transported toward the... [Pg.340]

In electron microscopy as in any field of optics the overall contrast is due to differential absorption of photons or particles (amplitude contrast) or diffraction phenomena (phase contrast). The method provides identification of phases and structural information on crystals, direct images of surfaces and elemental composition and distribution (see Section H below). Routine applications, however, may be hampered by complexities of image interpretation and by constraints on the type and preparation of specimens and on the environment within the microscope. [Pg.556]

FIGURE 4.2. A schematic of an atomic force microscope, comprising a piezo mbe, a cantilever, a sample or substrate to image and an optical lever using a laser and four-quadrant photodiode. A colloidal probe (radius 5 pm) is added to the end of the cantilever for direct force measurement. For imaging application, the probe is absent and the tip is rastered across the surface. [Pg.82]
