ECE Seminar - Upconversion nanophotonic systems

3:00pm - 5:00pm
Room 2503 (lift 25/26), Academic Bldg.

Abstract: I will showcase the recent advances made in nano photonics, bio photonics, and quantum photonics, enabling their transformation into cellular probes and single-molecule sensors. I will present the recently discovered advances in a new family of nanophotonic “Super Dots” that can up-convert infrared photons into intense visible light at the nanoscale. Each single Super Dot can be highly doped with more than 10^4 lanthanide ions for high brightness and nonlinear optical responses. Several fascinating properties have been discovered since to allow high-throughput bio-discoveries, data storage, single nanoparticle lasing and high-security-level anti-counterfeiting applications, setting records for the tracking of single-molecule transport, super-resolution microscopy, nanoscale thermometry, optical tweezers, and recently super-capacity digital assays, as well as the Australian development of rapid antigen test with single molecule sensitivities. The toolbox will enable super-resolution imaging of single molecules and live cells in their physiological environment, to watch subcellular compartments at work and understand the nanoscale world inside living cells.
