Soft matter is studied with a large portfolio of methods. Light scattering and video microscopy
are the most employed at optical wavelengths. Light scattering provides ensemble-averaged …

This review summarizes recent progress in investigating polymer systems by using
Differential dynamic microscopy (DDM), a rapidly emerging approach that transforms a …

Differential dynamic microscopy (DDM) is an emerging technique to measure the ensemble
dynamics of colloidal and complex fluid motion using optical microscopy in systems that …

We present a new method for performing passive probe microrheology. Using a simple
theoretical framework, we show how probes' mean-squared displacements can be extracted …

Differential dynamic microscopy (DDM) is an emerging tool for the measurement of diffusion
coefficients of macromolecules, especially in the form of particles or aggregates. It combines …

Particle size is a key variable in understanding the behaviour of the particulate products that
underpin much of our modern lives. Typically obtained from suspensions at rest, measuring …

Single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) is a key technique to observe
conformational changes in molecular motors and to access the details of single-molecule …

Monitoring the Brownian motion of individual nanoscopic objects is key to investigate their
transport properties and interactions with their close environment. Most techniques rely on …

We present a transmission-mode digital holographic microscope that can switch easily
between three different imaging modes: inline, dark field off-axis, and bright field off-axis …

An experimental verification of simulated flow dynamics in a novel design of microfluidic
device can be difficult, especially, in devices such as mixers or deterministic lateral …
