  1. 11. First As Probe, Then As Function - Fluorescence in Bio-inspired Nanotechnology

    Författare :Jonas Hannestad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; self-assembly; lipid membrane; bio-inspired; FRET; light-harvesting; spectroscopy.; fluorescence; nanotechnology; single molecule fluorescence spectroscopy; DNA;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I demonstrate how fluorescence can be used in the context of bio-inspired nanotechnology, both as an indirect probe and as a function in itself. By combining principles and molecules from three different bio-molecular systems, DNA, bacterial light-harvesting complexes and cell membranes, I have constructed nano- and microscale systems for long-range excitation energy transfer, light-harvesting and reaction control.

  2. 12. Light polarization in single molecule spectroscopy: From visualization of structural anisotropy and energy transfer to super-resolution imaging with orientational contrast

    Författare :Daniel Thomsson; Kemisk fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Single-molecule spectroscopy; π-conjugated polymers; blinking; fluorescence brightness; low temperature; polarization anisotropy; 2D polarization; energy transfer; super resolution; Fourier transform;

    Sammanfattning : Π-conjugated polymers are an important class of materials which can be used in e.g. photoelectric (solar cells) or electroluminescent (displays) devices. These materials are implemented in a number of applications these days since a lot is already known about them. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Development and application of ultra-sensitive fluorescence spectroscopy and microscopy for biomolecular interaction studies

    Författare :Lei Xu; Jerker Widengren; Gerhard Schütz; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; single molecule spectroscopy; fluorescence correlation spectroscopy; stimulated emission microscopy; cancer; biomolecular interaction; co-localization; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the development of sensitive and high-resolution fluorescence spectroscopic and microscopic techniques and their application to probe biomolecules and their interactions in solution, lipid membrane model systems and in cells. Paper I-IV are largely focused on methodological developments. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Surface Plasmon Photonics: From Optical Properties of Nanoparticles to Single Molecule Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering

    Författare :Hongxing Xu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanoparticles; nanostructures; Mie theory; surface plasmon; surface-enhanced Raman scattering; single molecule spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : With the rapid development of nanoscience and nanotechnology, surface plasmon photonics using metal nanoparticles and nanostructures gain increasing interest, not only for fundamental scientific studies, but also for electronic, optical, and sensor applications. In the nanoscale, the physical and chemical properties of metallic particles, especially their optical properties, strongly depend on size and shape, as well as on surrounding media and structures.

  5. 15. Single-Electron Tunneling Spectroscopy in Magnetic Nanoparticles and Molecular Magnets

    Författare :Lukasz Michalak; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; master equation; magnetic nanoparticles; spin accumulation; molecular magnets; TMR; tunneling magnetoresistance; F-SET; ferromagnetic single-electron transistor; single-electron tunneling; nanomagnetism; spintronics; Coulomb blockade;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with single-electron tunneling in transistor-like devices in which the central electrode is either a metal nanoparticle (possibly ferromagnetic) or a molecular magnet. The investigated systems split into two different categories, depending on the size of the central island. LÄS MER
