Multi-plane remote refocussing epifluorescence microscopy to image dynamic Ca2+ events (2019)
Journal Article
Lawton, P., Buckley, C., Saunter, C., Wilson, C., Corbett, A., Salter, P., McCarron, J., & Girkin, J. (2019). Multi-plane remote refocussing epifluorescence microscopy to image dynamic Ca2+ events. Biomedical Optics Express, 10(11), 5611-5624. https://doi.org/10.1364/boe.10.005611

Rapid imaging of multiple focal planes without sample movement may be achieved through remote refocusing, where imaging is carried out in a plane conjugate to the sample plane. The technique is ideally suited to studying the endothelial and smooth mu... Read More about Multi-plane remote refocussing epifluorescence microscopy to image dynamic Ca2+ events.

A CMOS SPAD Line Sensor With Per-Pixel Histogramming TDC for Time-Resolved Multispectral Imaging (2019)
Journal Article
Erdogan, A. T., Walker, R., Finlayson, N., Krstajic, N., Williams, G., Girkin, J., & Henderson, R. (2019). A CMOS SPAD Line Sensor With Per-Pixel Histogramming TDC for Time-Resolved Multispectral Imaging. IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, 54(6), 1705-1719. https://doi.org/10.1109/jssc.2019.2894355

A 512 × 16 single photon avalanche diode (SPAD)-based line sensor is designed in a 0.13- μm CMOS image sensor technology for time-resolved multispectral beam scanned imaging. The sensor has 23.78- μm pixel pitch and incorporates one SPAD array with 4... Read More about A CMOS SPAD Line Sensor With Per-Pixel Histogramming TDC for Time-Resolved Multispectral Imaging.

Scattering of spoof surface plasmon polaritons in defect-rich THz waveguides (2019)
Journal Article
Klein, A. K., Basden, A., Hammler, J., Tyas, L., Cooke, M., Balocco, C., Zeze, D., Girkin, J. M., & Gallant, A. (2019). Scattering of spoof surface plasmon polaritons in defect-rich THz waveguides. Scientific Reports, 9(1), Article 6288. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-42412-6

We report on the first observation of ‘Spoof’ Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) scattering from surface defects on metal-coated 3D printed, corrugated THz waveguiding surfaces. Surface defects, a result of the printing process, are shown to assist the... Read More about Scattering of spoof surface plasmon polaritons in defect-rich THz waveguides.

Chemical Science, 10(17), 4673-4683. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9sc00199a

Photoactivation of photosensitisers can be utilised to elicit the production of ROS, for potential therapeutic applications, including the destruction of diseased tissues and tumours. A novel class of photosensitiser, exemplified by DC324, has been d... Read More about Photoactivated cell-killing involving a low molecular weight, donor-acceptor diphenylacetylene.

VasoTracker, a Low-Cost and Open Source Pressure Myograph System for Vascular Physiology (2019)
Journal Article
