Resonance Fluorescence of an InGaAs Quantum Dot in a Planar Cavity Using Orthogonal Excitation and Detection

Resonant excitation of a single self-assembled quantum dot can be achieved using an excitation mode orthogonal to the fluorescence collection mode. We demonstrate a method using the waveguide and Fabry-Perot modes of a planar microcavity surrounding the quantum dots. The method allows complete freedom in the detection...

Intravital Longitudinal Imaging of Vascular Dynamics in the Calvarial Bone Marrow

Intravital microscopy allows the study of dynamic biological processes such as tissue regeneration and tumor development. The calvarial bone marrow, a highly dynamic tissue, offers insights into hematopoiesis and vascular function. Using a biocompatible 3D-printed head fixation implant allows for repetitive longitudinal imaging, enhancing our understanding of tissue dynamics and the tumor...

Quantum Numbers

It is said that the energy of an electron in an atom is quantized; that is, it can be equal only to certain specific values and can jump from one energy level to another but not transition smoothly or stay between these levels.

Compact Quantum Dots for Single-molecule Imaging

We describe the preparation of colloidal quantum dots with minimized hydrodynamic size for single-molecule fluorescence imaging. Compared to conventional quantum dots, these nanoparticles are similar in size to globular proteins and are optimized for single-molecule brightness, stability against photodegradation, and resistance to nonspecific binding to proteins and...

External Excitation of Neurons Using Electric and Magnetic Fields in One- and Two-dimensional Cultures

Neuronal cultures are a good model for studying emerging brain stimulation techniques via their effect on single neurons or a population of neurons. Presented here are different methods for stimulation of patterned neuronal cultures by an electric field produced directly by bath electrodes or induced by a time-varying magnetic field.

Production and Targeting of Monovalent Quantum Dots10:16

Production and Targeting of Monovalent Quantum Dots

We provide detailed instructions for the preparation of monovalent targeted quantum dots (mQDs) from phosphorothioate DNA of defined length. DNA wrapping occurs in high yield, and therefore, products do not require purification. We demonstrate the use of the SNAP tag to target mQDs to cell-surface receptors for live-cell imaging applications.
