A Method for Expansion of Z-Directional Measurement Range in a Mode-Locked Femtosecond Laser Chromatic Confocal Probe
摘要： A method is proposed to expand the Z-directional measurement range of a fiber-based dual-detector chromatic confocal probe with a mode-locked femtosecond laser source. In the dual-detector chromatic confocal probe, the Z-directional displacement of a measurement target is derived from the peak wavelength in the normalized intensity ratio from the two light intensities obtained by the two identical fiber detectors. In this paper, a new method utilizing the main-lobe and side-lobes of axial responses acquired from both the normalized intensity ratio Ia and the invert normalized intensity ratio In, which is the inverse of Ia, is proposed to obtain the seamless relationship between the peak wavelength and the Z-directional displacement of a measurement target. Theoretical calculations and experimental investigation are carried out to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed measurement range expansion method.

A sensitive and selective fluorescence probe for detection of hypochlorite (OCl?) and its bioimaging in live cells
摘要： A novel indolium-based fluorescent probe (probe 1) for the recognition and detection of hypochlorite (OCl?) has been explored via a double oxidation reaction mechanism. Probe 1 exhibited excellent selectivity and sensitivity for OCl? over other analytes, and with a detection limit of 0.11 μM. Meanwhile, probe 1 showed fast response towards OCl? in less than 3 min with obvious changes in color, which could be observed by naked eye. Moreover, fluorescence imaging experiments by using Eca109 cells were performed utilizing the new probe, demonstrating its practical applications in living cells.

Design and synthesis of a new fluorescent probe for cascade detection of Zn <sup>2+</sup> and H <sub/>2</sub> PO <sub/>4</sub><sup>?</sup> in water and targeted imaging of living cells
摘要： Design and synthesis of new fluorescence probes with good water‐solubility is of great importance to better understanding the significant role of ions which are related to biology and the environment. As important ions, zinc ion (Zn2+) and dihydrogen phosphate ion (H2PO4?) display essential roles in living systems, and quantitative detection of these ions in water is still a challenge. In order to consider the significant role of the galactose moiety in the design of a water‐soluble fluorescence sensor, herein, we have developed a novel probe, Gal‐AQTF, for the cascade detection of Zn2+ and H2PO4? with excellent selectivity in water. Through the introduction of the galactose moiety onto the sensor AQTF, which has been reported earlier by us, the water‐solubility, cell compatibility and targeting ability were enhanced. Gal‐AQTF has been successfully applied in the imaging of the living cells of HepG2 and A549, and illustrated good selectivity for the HepG2 cells which overly express the asialoglycoprotein (ASGP) receptor.

A through-bond energy transfer-based ratiometric fluorescent pH probe: For extreme acidity and extreme alkaline detection with large emission shifts
摘要： A ratiometric fluorescence pH probe 1 based on through-bond energy transfer (TBET) with a 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole (HBO) as donor and a Rhodamine derivative as acceptor is developed through simple condensation reaction. The probe exhibits a ratiometric fluorescence emission (I593/I422) characteristics and linear response to extreme acidity range of 5.00-2.88, and a ratiometric fluorescence emission (I555/I422) characteristics and linear response to extreme alkaline range of 10.00-13.78, respectively. Moreover, 1 possesses highly selective response to pH over metal ions, good reversibility and excellent photostability. Probe 1 is cellpermeable and can distinguish near pH 5.55 fluctuations in Hela cells. Furthermore, 1 can be immobilized on a test paper, which shows a rapid and reversible colorimetric response to HCl/NH3 vapor by the naked-eye.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) SILICONPV 2018, THE 8TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CRYSTALLINE SILICON PHOTOVOLTAICS - Lausanne, Switzerland (19–21 March 2018)] - Atom probe Tomography of fast-diffusing impurities and the effect of gettering in multicrystalline silicon
摘要： This article demonstrates an approach for multiscale characterisation of individual defects, such as grain boundaries, in multicrystalline silicon. The analysis techniques range from macroscale characterisation of average bulk lifetime, through photoluminescence to resolve spatial recombination, and finally to nanoscale analysis of the crystallographic characteristics and impurity decoration of the grain boundary using Transmission Kikuchi Diffraction and Atom Probe Tomography. This method can be used to characterise defects and their response to processing, such as gettering and hydrogen passivation. In this paper it is applied to the test case of Saw Damage Gettering on Red Zone High Performance Multicrystalline Silicon. In both as-cast and gettered samples, copper and chromium were observed at a recombination active, random angle grain boundary. After gettering the copper excess was found to decrease. In contrast, the slower diffusing chromium was found to increase, potentially indicating internal gettering. At a recombination inactive Σ3 grain boundary only oxygen was observed at the boundary before gettering, with no transition metals detected.

Influence of RbF post deposition treatment on heterojunction and grain boundaries in high efficient (21.1%) Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells
摘要： Post deposition treatments (PDT) by alkali fluorides applied to chalcopyrite-based absorbers have produced record efficiencies in thin-film solar devices in the past few years and recently the efficiency of 22.6 % was achieved with Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) using rubidium fluoride (RbF) PDT. However, the effects of RbF-PDT towards changes in its interfacial and grain boundary (GB) properties are still not fully understood. In this work, cells with efficiency higher than 21% are investigated by combination of atom probe tomography (APT) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to show how changes in GB and interface chemistry may facilitate high efficiencies. APT studies, carried out at the interface between CIGS absorber and solution-grown CdS buffer layer, show In enrichment and Cu depletion along with traces of Rb. Our APT studies reveal higher amounts of Rb (1.5 at. %) and lower amounts of Na and K (<0.5 at. %) at GBs as compared with previous studies (on non-PDT samples) thus indicating substitution of Na and K by Rb. However, concentration of all alkali elements inside the grain bulk is below detection limit of APT. The concentration of Rb at the GBs in CIGS is measured depth-dependent using both APT and TEM, which consistently shows the increase in Rb towards the Mo back contact. In addition, a pronounced Cu depletion is observed at the GBs which might enhance hole-barrier properties of the GBs, thus improving charge carrier collection and hence the overall efficiency of the device. Thus, understanding effects of RbF-PDT at the atomic scale provides new insights concerning the further improvement of CIGS absorber and interfaces.

Structural characterization of tin nanocrystals embedded in silicon by atomic probe tomography
摘要： Tin nanocrystals embedded in silicon are studied by atom probe tomography and by photoluminescence spectroscopy in the 0.76–1.07 eV region of emission energies. The nanocrystals have been fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy followed by a post-growth annealing step at various temperatures. One particular sample, annealed at a temperature of 725 ?C, shows a distinctly higher optical activity. It is found, however, that the distinct behavior cannot be explained by variations in the nanocrystal composition or in the properties of Sn atoms dissolved in the surrounding Si matrix, which can be investigated by atom probe tomography.

A Fluorescent Supramolecular Biosensor for Bacterial Detection via Binding-Induced Changes in Coiled-Coil Molecular Assembly
摘要： The essential elements required for any sensors are a receptor, a signal converter, and a detector. Here, we report the construction of bacterial biosensors in which all of the required biosensor elements are furnished in one supramolecular assembly. The supramolecular biosensor is based on a double-layered octa-helical coiled-coil peptide assembly that contains tetravalent bioreceptors on the outer surface and environment-sensitive fluorophores in the core. The signal conversion takes advantage of the noncovalent and reversible nature of the self-assembled system, i.e., the multivalent binding of bacteria induces conformational changes in the supramolecular state, which is translated into differential fluorescence emissions. We show that fluorescent supramolecular biosensors (fSBs) can selectively detect E. coli over other bacteria. Because the fSBs were resistant to heat-induced denaturation, they retained their bacterial-sensing capability even at an elevated temperature (50 ℃). Biosensors based on responsive supramolecular assemblies can be further developed to detect various large and flat biological objects and biomacromolecules.

Lysosome-Targeted Single Fluorescence Probe for Two-Channel Imaging Intracellular SO2 and Biothiols
摘要： As the members of reactive sulfur species, SO2 and biothiols play a signi?cant role in physiological and pathological processes and directly in?uence numerous diseases. Furthermore, SO2 and biothiols can provide a reductive environment for lysosomes to carry out their optimal functionality. To this end, the development of single ?uorescent probes for imaging SO2 and biothiols from different emission channels is highly desirable for understanding their physiological nature. Here, a lysosome-targeted ?uorescent probe (BPO-DNSP) with a dual reaction site for SO2 and biothiols was presented. BPO-DNSP can sensitively and selectively respond to SO2 in the green channel with a large Stokes shift over 105 nm, and to biothiols in the near-infrared emission channel with a large Stokes shift over 109 nm. The emission shift for the two channels was as high as 170 nm. Colocalization experiments veri?ed that BPO-DNSP can selectively enrich lysosomes. Notably, BPO-DNSP can not only be used to image intracellular SO2 and biothiols from two different channels, but also to monitor the conversion of biothiols to SO2 without adding exogenous enzymes in living HeLa cells.
