(Elsevier, 2021-01-15)The development of flexible and low-cost methods of surface functionalization to fight infection at the early stage is an urgent scientific task. Herein, polymerization in low-pressure plasma rich in COOH species and ... -
Apparatus for dosing liquid water in ultrahigh vacuum
(AIP Publishing, 2018-08-30)The structure of the solid-liquid interface often defines the function and performance of materials in applications. To study this interface at the atomic scale, we extended an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) surface-science chamber ... -
Automated classification of cell morphology by coherence-controlled holographic microscopy
(SPIE, 2017-08-23)In the last few years, classification of cells by machine learning has become frequently used in biology. However, most of the approaches are based on morphometric (MO) features, which are not quantitative in terms of cell ... -
Automated interpretation of time-lapse quantitative phase image by machine learning to study cellular dynamics during epithelial-mesenchymal transition
(SPIE, 2020-08-31)Significance: Machine learning is increasingly being applied to the classification of microscopic data. In order to detect some complex and dynamic cellular processes, time-resolved live-cell imaging might be necessary. ... -
Calcium and fluorine signals in HS-LEIS for CaF2(111) and powder-Quantification of atomic surface concentrations using LiF(001), Ca, and Cu references
(AIP Publishing, 2020-12-01)The powder of CaF2 has been proposed as a practical reference for the quantitation of Ca and F in low energy ion scattering (LEIS) analysis. It is chemically inert, easy to clean, and inexpensive. LEIS is extremely surface ... -
Catalyst–substrate interaction and growth delay in vapor–liquid–solid nanowire growth
(IOP Publishing, 2018-03-26)Understanding of the initial stage of nanowire growth on a bulk substrate is crucial for the rational design of nanowire building blocks in future electronic and optoelectronic devices. Here, we provide in situ scanning ... -
Characterization of GaAs Solar Cells under Supercontinuum Long-Time Illumination
(MDPI, 2021-01-19)This work is dedicated to the description of the degradation of GaAs solar cells under continuous laser irradiation. Constant and strong exposure of the solar cell was performed over two months. Time-dependent electrical ... -
Chk1 inhibition significantly potentiates activity of nucleoside analogs in TP53-mutated B-lymphoid cells
(Impact Journals, 2016-08-19)Treatment options for TP53-mutated lymphoid tumors are very limited. In experimental models, TP53-mutated lymphomas were sensitive to direct inhibition of checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1), a pivotal regulator of replication. We ... -
Coherence gate manipulation for enhanced imaging through scattering media by non-ballistic light in partially coherent interferometric systems
(The Optical Society, 2021-09-15)Coherence gating is typically exploited for imaging through disordered media by least-scattered (ballistic) light. Ballistic light-based approaches produce clear images only when the proportion of ballistic to multiply ... -
