When collecting X-ray diffraction data from a crystal, we measure the intensities of the diffracted waves scattered from a series of planes that we can imagine slicing through the crystal in all directions. From these intensities we derive the amplitudes of the scattered waves, but in the experiment we lose the phase…

Biological molecular imaging and sensing requires fluorophores that are not only stable and bright, but also small enough to allow the unencumbered observation of the movement of proteins. Toward this goal, we have studied the formation of fluorescent metallic gold nanoclusters stabilized by small molecule ligands. Th…

The program RADDOSE is widely used to compute the dose absorbed by a macromolecular crystal during an X-ray diffraction experiment. A number of factors affect the absorbed dose, including the incident X-ray flux density, the photon energy and the composition of the macromolecule and of the buffer in the crystal. An ex…

We have designed and synthesized a multidentate polymer ligand used for water-solubilization of luminescent quantum dots (QDs). The synthesis of the multidentate ligand (PAA-g-MEA) was based on several thiol groups grafted to a linear polymer chain through a simple carboxy-amine coupling reaction between poly(acryl ac…

The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) linewidths of B acceptors in Si are found to reduce dramatically in isotopically purified 28Si single crystals. Moreover, extremely narrow substructures in the EPR spectra are visible corresponding to either an enhancement or a reduction of the absorbed microwave on resonance.…

Recent experimental data on the optical conductivity of niobium-doped ${\text{SrTiO}}_{3}$ are interpreted in terms of a gas of large polarons with effective coupling constant ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{\text{eff}}\ensuremath{\approx}2$. The theoretical approach takes into account many-body effects, the electron-phonon i…

In principle, the Luttinger-Ward Green's function formalism allows one to compute simultaneously the total energy and the quasiparticle band structure of a many-body electronic system from first principles. We present approximate and exact expressions for the correlation energy within the GW-RPA approximation that are…

Non-lithographic fabrication of a self-aligned nanopore SERS array with large-area hexagonal symmetry is achieved by Au deposition on an anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) template. Precise self-formation of plasmonic nanopore arrays with facile structural tunability allows control of the SERS response, and results in high…
