A CMOS time-resolved fluorescence lifetime analysis micro-system (2009)
Journal Article
Rae, B., Muir, K. R., Gong, Z., McKendry, J., Girkin, J. M., Gu, E., …Henderson, R. (2009). A CMOS time-resolved fluorescence lifetime analysis micro-system. Sensors, 9(11), 9255-9274. https://doi.org/10.3390/s91109255

We describe a CMOS-based micro-system for time-resolved fluorescence lifetime analysis. It comprises a 16 × 4 array of single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) fabricated in 0.35 μm high-voltage CMOS technology with in-pixel time-gated photon counting...

Adaptive optics for deeper imaging of biological samples. (2009)
Journal Article
Girkin, J., Poland, S., & Wright, A. (2009). Adaptive optics for deeper imaging of biological samples. Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 20(1), 106-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.copbio.2009.02.009

Optical microscopy has been a cornerstone of life science investigations since its first practical application around 400 years ago with the goal being subcellular resolution, three-dimensional images, at depth, in living samples. Nonlinear microscop... Read More about Adaptive optics for deeper imaging of biological samples..

Design of diffractive optical elements for beam shaping of micro-pixellated LED light to a tightly focused spot. (2008)
Journal Article
Liu, J., Caley, A., Taghizadeh, M., Gu, E., Girkin, J., & Dawson, M. (2008). Design of diffractive optical elements for beam shaping of micro-pixellated LED light to a tightly focused spot. Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 41(9), https://doi.org/10.1088/0022-3727/41/9/094005

Tightly focused spots with small central lobes, high central intensity and low sidelobe intensity are desirable for many light-emitting diode based micro-projection system applications. Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) offer a potentially low cost... Read More about Design of diffractive optical elements for beam shaping of micro-pixellated LED light to a tightly focused spot..
