Nanophotonic Light Sources for Fluorescence Spectroscopy and Cellular Imaging

摘要

Herein we demonstrate a new approach to nanophotonics with the fabrication and application of nanoscale light-emitting diodes (nanoLEDs) for fluorescence Spectroscopy and single-analyte detection,and as nearfield light sources for cellular imaging.The nanoLEDs have a final diameter of 50 nm and are easily integrated into microfluidic channels-a desirable property for future "lab-on-a-chip" systems.
