The understanding of living systems and their building blocks relies heavily on the
assessment of structure–function relationships at the nanoscale. Ever since the …

Raman spectroscopic imaging was used to investigate the uptake of oxidized LDLs
(oxLDLs) by human macrophages. To better understand the endocytic pathway and the …

The light-based nanowelding of metallic nanoparticles is of particular interest because it
provides convenient and controlled means for the conversion of nanoparticles into …

Crystallography has been the routine technique for studying high-resolution structures of
proteins for over five decades. A major bottleneck in structure determination of …

We fabricated flat and homogeneous Al 2 O 3/ZnO/Al 2 O 3 heterostructure luminescent
layers by atomic layer deposition (ALD) to serve as a nanometer-scaled light source for high …

The luminescent properties of ZnO thin films have been developed to form a nanometric light
source for an electron beam-excitation assisted optical microscope. Spatial uniformity of the …

Light-based nanowelding of metallic nanoparticles is of particular interest because it
provides convenient and controlled means for the conversion of nanoparticles into …

Bioimaging of living specimens in ultrahigh resolution using atmospheric scanning electron
microscopy requires preparation of samples on a substrate of thin silicon nitride membranes …

Raman spectroscopic imaging was used to investigate the uptake of oxidized low-density
lipoproteins (oxLDL) by human macrophages. To better understand the endocytic pathway …

This chapter discusses the principle of the super-resolution optical microscope by electron
beam excitation and the experimental results of bio-imaging. Therefore, it is necessary to …
