  1. 1. Optimization and Characterization of Luminescent Materials for the ESS Proton Beam Imaging System

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Emelie Wiklund; Anton Järild; [2021]
    Keywords : Chemical Engineering; Luminescent materials; Cr-doped Alumina; Proton Beam Imaging System; ESS; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Spallation sources such as European Spallation Source (ESS) produces neutrons by bombarding high-energy protons onto the target wheel. To determine the location of the proton beam a Proton Beam Imaging (PBI) system will be installed. READ MORE

  3. 2. High Accuracy Relative Luminescence Quantum Yield Measurements of Upconverting Nanoparticles

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Atomfysik

    Author : Björn Thomasson; [2016]
    Keywords : Upconverting Nanoparticles; Biomedical imaging; Luminescence tomography; Luminescence imaging; Engineering; Physics; Engineering Physics; Photonics; Cancer; Cancer detection; Cancer diagnostics; Laser Engineering; quantum yield; imaging; upconverting; Biophotonics; Single Point Tomography; Relative Luminescence Quantum Yield Measurements; Energy transfer upconversion; Nanoscience; Luminescence; Imaging of biological tissue; Upconversion; Beam profile evaluation; Beam profile; UCNP; UCNPs; Nanoparticles; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The name Upconverting nanoparticles refers to a novel category of luminescence emitters that are capable of generating visible luminescence upon excitation with noncoherent and longer wavelength monochromatic near-infrared light, at excitation fluence rates as low as 1-103 W/cm2. This unique optical behaviour is of great interest to researchers as it could potentially allow for virtually autofluorescence free luminescence imaging of living tissue. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of an Upconverting Nanoparticles Quantum Yield Measurement System

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Meng Li; [2016]
    Keywords : UCNPs; upconverting nanoparticles; QY; quantum yield; fluorescence; luminescence; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Fluorescence imaging is a growing biomedical technique; it can be used to localize the luminescent biomarkers inside the tissue. Lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are promising luminescent probes for multiple applications in biophotonics. They allow acquiring autofluorescence-free recordings with high spatial resolution. READ MORE

  5. 4. Three-Dimensional Quantitative Cerenkov Luminescence Imaging

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Atomfysik

    Author : Anton Ajne; [2014]
    Keywords : Cerenkov; CLI; Optical imaging; Nuclear medicine; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Cerenkov luminescence imaging (CLI) is an up-and-coming optical technique for in vivo imaging of beta-emitting radioisotopes. CLI relies on measurements of the Cerenkov radiation emitted when high-energy beta-particles travel through tissue. READ MORE

  6. 5. Nd-doped Upconverting Nanoparticles for Deep Tissue Imaging

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Atomfysik

    Author : Hugo Söderlund; [2014]
    Keywords : fluorescence imaging; Upconverting nanoparticles; biophotonics; Nd-doped comparison; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : During the last decade, upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) doped with rare-earth (RE) ions have been extensively studied in the field of biophotonics. Due to their unique properties of anti- Stokes shifted luminescence and with excitation and emission wavelengths optimal for biomedical imaging, they have become an interesting class of fluorescent contrast agents.
