Journal ArticleDOI
Diffraction phase microscopy: principles and applications in materials and life sciences
Basanta Bhaduri,Chris Edwards,Hoa V. Pham,Renjie Zhou,Tan H. Nguyen,Lynford L. Goddard,Gabriel Popescu +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a diffraction phase microscopy (DPM) system, which is a common-path quantitative phase imaging (QPI) method that significantly alleviates the noise problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissolution Chemistry and Biocompatibility of Single-Crystalline Silicon Nanomembranes and Associated Materials for Transient Electronics
Suk Won Hwang,Gayoung Park,Chris Edwards,Elise A. Corbin,Seung-Kyun Kang,Huanyu Cheng,Jun-Kyul Song,Jae Hwan Kim,Sooyoun Yu,Joanne Ng,Jung Eun Lee,Jiyoung Kim,Cassian Yee,Basanta Bhaduri,Fiorenzo G. Omennetto,Fiorenzo G. Omennetto,Yonggang Huang,Rashid Bashir,Lynford L. Goddard,Gabriel Popescu,Kyung Mi Lee,John A. Rogers +21 more
TL;DR: In vitro and in vivo investigations of Si NMs and other transient electronic materials demonstrate biocompatibility and bioresorption, thereby suggesting potential for envisioned applications in active, biodegradable electronic implants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optically monitoring and controlling nanoscale topography during semiconductor etching
TL;DR: In this article, a non-destructive optical imaging technique that combines a conventional microscope with a compact Mach-Zehnder interferometer is used to measure etch rates at each location across the sample with resolution of 0.085 nm s−1 per pixel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detecting 20 nm wide defects in large area nanopatterns using optical interferometric microscopy.
TL;DR: This work reports on a nondestructive low-noise interferometric imaging method capable of detecting nanoscale defects within a wide field of view using visible light, which enables successful detection of several different types of sparse defects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of spatial coherence in diffraction phase microscopy
Chris Edwards,Basanta Bhaduri,Tan Nguyen,Benjamin G. Griffin,Hoa V. Pham,Taewoo Kim,Gabriel Popescu,Lynford L. Goddard +7 more
TL;DR: This work shows that white light diffraction phase microscopy using a standard halogen lamp can produce accurate height maps of even the most challenging structures provided that there is proper spatial filtering at: 1) the condenser to ensure adequate spatial coherence and 2) the output Fourier plane to produce a uniform reference beam.
