TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results of characterization and application of single fluorescent nanodiamonds as cellular biomarkers, and showed that under the same excitation conditions, the fluorescence of a single 35-nm diamond is significantly brighter than that of a simple dye molecule such as Alexa Fluor 546, which was photobleached in the range of 10 s at a laser power density of 104 W/cm2.

TL;DR: The feasibility of using surface-functionalized fluorescent nanodiamonds as single-particle biomarkers is demonstrated with both fixed and live HeLa cells, and the fluorescence of a single 35-nm diamond is significantly brighter than that of asingle dye molecule such as Alexa Fluor 546.

TL;DR: By properly adjusting the OXD content through copolymerization, this work can tailor the chemical structure of electroluminescent material to give a balance of hole- and electron injections for various metal cathodes, such that the quantum efficiency is significantly improved and the turn-on voltage is reduced for the devices with aluminum and calcium.

TL;DR: The plasmonic scattering images confirm the size-dependent endocytosis of AuNPs and suggest the 45-nm-AuNP is better for drug delivery due to its higher uptake rate and the large number of large AuNPS are immobilized on the cell membrane, which can be used to reconstruct the cell morphology.

TL;DR: Compared to nanoslit arrays on glass substrates using electron-beam lithography, the proposed chip has a higher intensity sensitivity up to 10367%/RIU (refractive index unit) and reaches a figure of merit up to 55.5%.
