Check out our latest paper in J. Phys. Chem. Letters! Complex Resonant Scattering Behavior in the Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging Microscopy of Single Gold Nanorods Yunshan Fan, Yara Aceta, Esther Hessong, Athena Bengston, Laris A. Biageyian, Quan P. Huynh, and Robert M. Corn* https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.jpclett.1c00268 Congratulations to Yunshan and everyone else in the group! 02 September 2020 We've been back in lab for almost two months now, slowly chipping away at the science. We are now cleared to have our undergraduates back in lab -- Athena, Alex and Laris are excited to be with real chemicals and instruments again instead of just working at home on data analysis! Welcome back! 15 June 2020 After staying home for over a month, our labs are now back up and running!! We got a lot of data analysis done in May, and the good part of a nice FTIR paper. But now it's time to get back in lab and take new data - which is already happening! 22 November 2019 Congratulations to Kellen (now Dr. Kartub!) for a successful Ph. D. defense! 09 August 2019 Congratulations to Hiroshi and Brandon on their paper just published in Biosensors and Bioelectronics on "MicroRNA detection on microsensor arrays by SPR imaging measurements with enzymatic signal enhancement"! https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bios.2019.111565 15 July 2019 Dr. Yunshan Fan (yunshanf@uci.edu) joins our research group as a Postodoctoral Scientist! Yunshan received her Ph. D. from the University of Washington in the labs of Prof. Bo Zhang. 08 July 2019 We run a 2019 AAUW Tech Trek Camp session in our labs on Nanoparticle Chemistry! 17 June 2019 Thao and Nguyen graduate from UCI with B. S. Chemistry degrees. Congratulations Thao and Nguyen!! 31 May 2019 Brandon successfully defends and earns his Ph. D. Congratulations, Brandon! 04 April 2019 Millie completes her Ph. D. work and is off to Seattle. Farewell, Millie! 22 February 2019 Congratulations to Brandon Matthews, Adam Maley and Kellen Kartub on their paper just accepted to J. Phys. Chem. C! "Characterizing the Incorporation of DNA into Single NIPAm Hydrogel Nanoparticles with Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging Measurements," Brandon M. Matthews, Adam M. Maley, Kellen M. Kartub, and Robert M. Corn, J. Phys. Chem. C., 123 6090-6096 (2019). ACS link> 17 January 2019 Congratulations to Millie Fung, Kellen Kartub and Seulgi So on their paper that is now officially published in J. Phys. Chem. C! H. W. M. Fung, S. So, K. Kartub and R. M. Corn, "Quantitative Characterization of Optical Coupling in Nanoporous ZnO-WO3 and ZnO-PEDOT Composite Electrodeposited Gratings using Electrodiffraction Measurements" J. Phys. Chem. C., 123 762-769 (2019). ACS link> |
