Silica nanoparticles microscopy images

CARS microscopy has emerged as a highly sensitive analytical tool for vibrational bioimaging, predominantly, of lipids in membrane model systems [69, 81-84], live unstained cells [85-95, 43], and both ex vivo and in vivo tissues [26, 96-103, 43]. Examples of CARS imaging applications in the physical and material sciences include the study of fracture dynamics in drying silica nanoparticle suspensions [104], patterned polymeric photoresist film [105], drug molecules in a polymer matrix [106], and liquid crystals [107, 108],... 

Fig. 2 Top -view microscopy images of different substrates considered in this work, (top) Flat silicon and silica sphere arrays before chemical treatment, (middle) Similar substrates after PFOTS treatment, (bottom) Images of flat silicon and silica sphere arrays decorated by gold nanoparticles. The wettability results (insets) show that superhydrophobicity is achieved on hierarchical structures as depicted by a large contact angle for identical surface chemistry...

(Adapted from Jouault Nicolas et al. Macromolecules., 47, no. 15, 5246-5255, 2014b.)... 

Transmission electron microscopy images along the injection direction of the impact specimen bars provide direct inspection of the nanoparticles in the PP matrix (Figure 3.14). In the case of untreated naiio-silica/PP composite, large agglomerates (> 500 nm) appear and there is no trace of elongation of...
