Laser microdissection microscopy in parasitology: microscopes meet thermocyclers

The new methods of laser microdissection microscopy have received wide acceptance in biology and have been applied in a small number of parasitology investigations. Here, the techniques and applications of laser microdissection microscopy are reviewed with suggestions of how the systems might be used to explore applied questions in parasite molecular biology and host-parasite interactions.

Computer-aided-design of saturated magnetic lenses for electron microscopes

In the last few years, there has been considerable interest in using saturated magnetic objective lenses in high resolution electron microscopes. Such lenses, in present commercial electron microscopes, are energized either by conventional or superconducting coils. Very little work, however, has been reported on the use of conventional coils in saturated magnetic electron lenses. The present investigation has been concerned with the design of high flux density saturated objective lenses of both single and double polepiece types which may be energized by conventional coils and in some cases by superconducting coils. Such coils have the advantage of being small and capable of carrying high current densities. The present work has been carried out with the aid of several computer programs based on the finite element method. The effect of the shape and position of the energizing coil on the electron optical parameter has been investigated. Electron optical properties such as chromatic and spherical aberration have been studies in detail for saturated single and double polepiece lenses. Several high flux density coils of different shapes have been investigated. The choice of the most favourable coil shape and position subject to the operational requirements, has been studied in some detail. The focal properties of such optimised lenses have been computed and compared.

All-Fiber erbium doped fiber laser based on an intracavity polarizing fiber grating

Using Aston-made special design polarizing grating, we have implemented a stretchpulse mode locked erbium fiber laser. The laser has a simple and efficient all-fiber configuration with 90 fs output pulse duration and1.68 nJ pulse energy. © OSA 2014

Optical loading sensor based on ring-cavity fiber laser incorporating a 45°-tilted fiber polarizing grating

We have experimentally demonstrated an active loading sensor system based on a fiber ring laser with singlepolarization output using an intra-cavity 45°-tilted fiber grating. When the laser cavity fiber is subjected to loading, the laser output is encoded with the loading information that can be measured and monitored by a standard power meter. The achieved loading sensitivity is 0.033/kg • m-1 and 0.042/kg • m-1 for two different interaction lengths. The experimental results clearly show that such a single-polarization fiber laser may be commercially developed into a low-cost, high-sensitivity loading sensor system.
