    Abstract: Provided are methods, devices and systems that utilize free-surface fluidics and SERS for analyte detection with high sensitivity and specificity. The molecules can be airborne agents, including but not limited to explosives, narcotics, hazardous chemicals, or other chemical species. The free-surface fluidic architecture is created using an open microchannel, and exhibits a large surface to volume ratio. The free-surface fluidic interface can filter interferent molecules, while concentrating airborne analyte molecules. The microchannel flow enables controlled aggregation of SERS-active probe particles in the flow, thereby enhancing the detector's sensitivity.

    Abstract: Apparatus for the manipulation, processing and observation of small particles, in particular biological particles, is disclosed. A first laser (4) generates light beams in a first wavelength range, which are focused with a first optical device (12, 13; 14, 15) and form an optical trap. A object holder (22) serves to contain the relevant particles. In addition a light source (17) for observation light is provided, whereas observation and recording devices serve to observe particles and record their behavior. A second laser (3) generates light beams in a second wavelength range, which are focused in order to manipulate particles in the object holder. The optical devices for the individual light beams can be positioned and focused independently of one another, and at the beginning of manipulation and observation the beams are focused in the same object plane of the object holder independently of their wavelengths.

    Abstract: A scanning optical microscope comprises a light source, an objective lens for focusing light emitted from the light source upon an object to be observed, a light deflecting optical system provided between the light source and the objective lens and including a light deflector formed by an acousto-optic light deflector (AOD), photoelectric transducing means for detecting light from the object, and light shielding means having an elongated aperture provided between the object and the photoelectric transducing means. Light from the light source is deflected by the AOD to scan the object at a high speed, and light from the object is led to the photoelectric transducing means through the aperture of the light shielding means, without passing through the AOD, to realize confocal microscopy.

    Abstract: An apparatus for optically detecting light-absorbing contamination in at least one particle of low optical-loss material comprises an optical integrating chamber for containing the particles. A laser for emitting a laser beam to illuminate the particles is mounted in the plane of rotation of a rotating mirror such that the laser beam scans in a fan scan. A scanning assembly is mounted in optical alignment with the laser for reflecting the laser beam and for causing the laser beam to scan the particles in the optical integrating chamber. A focusing assembly is mounted in optical alignment with the laser for focusing the scanning laser beam onto the particles in the chamber, the focusing assembly operating in conjunction with the scanning assembly so that light from the laser beam is reflected from the particles and is repeatedly scattered onto the interior walls of the integrating chamber. A light sensing assembly is mounted on the integrating chamber for receiving the repeatedly scattered light from the interior walls of the integrating chamber and for generating a signal indicative of the intensity of the repeatedly scattered light. A decrease in the intensity of the repeatedly scattered light is a function of the presence of light-absorbing contamination in the material.
