A heptamethine fluorophore, ERB-60, has been synthesized efficiently in four steps in a good yield. The structure of this fluorophore consists of an electron-donating group (methoxy), a hydrophobic moiety (phenylpropyl) with a rotatable bond, a quaternary ammonium fragment, and indolium rings at the terminal ends connected via polymethine chain. All these inherent chemical features fine-tuned the optical properties of the fluorophore. This compound was characterized by both 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectra. The optical properties, including molar absorptivity, fluorescence, Stokes’s shift, and quantum yield, were measured in different solvents such as DMSO, DMF, MeCN, i-PrOH, MeOH, and H2O. The wavelengths of maximum absorbance of ERB-60 were found to be in the range of 745–770 nm based on the solvents used. In decreasing order, the maximum wavelength of absorbance of ERB-60 in the tested solvents was DMSO > DMF > i-PrOH > MeOH > MeCN > H2O while the decreasing order of the extinction coefficient was found to be MeCN > MeOH > DMSO > i-PrOH > H2O > DMF. ERB-60 was found to be more photostable than IR-786 iodide, a commercially available dye, and brighter than the FDA-approved dye, indocyanine green (ICG).

We present a broad-band, continuous wave spectral approach to quantify the baseline optical properties of tissue, in particular the absolute absorption and scattering properties and changes in the concentrations of chromophores, which can assist to quantify the regional blood flow from dynamic contrast-enhanced near-infrared spectroscopy data. Experiments were conducted on phantoms and piglets. The baseline optical properties of tissue were determined by performing a multi-parameter wavelength-dependent differential data fit of the near infrared reflectance spectrum between 680 nm and 970 nm of a photon diffusion equation solution for a semi-infinite homogeneous medium. These baseline optical properties of the piglet head tissue were used to quantify the temporal dynamics of the concentration of the intravenously administered contrast agent Indocyanine Green in the piglet brain. The temporal traces of the Indocyanine Green concentration measured by our method were used to estimate the cerebral blood flow using a bolus tracking technique.

The use of Indocyanine Green (ICG) as a fluorescent marker at Near Infrared (NIR) excitation wavelengths is well established in clinical imaging. Typical systems comprise multiple LED sources for optimal imaging which can result in unnecessary energy transfer to patients and contribute to tissue damage. An experimental setup comprising a 780 nm excitation channel generating up to 10 mW of optical power is used in order to determine if there is potential to exploit the optical properties of ICG, in order to reduce the total excitation power through pulsing. We demonstrate in this work that a single 1.6 Megapixel CMOS camera with quantum efficiency of less than 30% is appropriate to capture both fluorescent and non-fluorescent landmarks at NIR wavelengths. Experimental results verify that all ICG solutions tested yielded detectable fluorescence and that degradation of fluorescence intensity over time is multifaceted.

Developement of computer technology provides much improvements on electron microscopy, such as simulation of images, reconstruction of images and automatic controll of microscopes (auto-focussing and auto-correction of astigmatism) and design of electron microscope lenses by using a finite element method (FEM). In this investigation, procedures for simulating the optical properties of objective lenses of HREM and the characteristics of the new lens for HREM at 200 kV are described.The process for designing the objective lens is divided into three stages. Stage 1 is the process for estimating the optical properties of the lens. Firstly, calculation by FEM is made for simulating the axial magnetic field distributions Bzc of the lens. Secondly, electron ray trajectory is numerically calculated by using Bzc. And lastly, using Bzc and ray trajectory, spherical and chromatic aberration coefficients Cs and Cc are numerically calculated. Above calculations are repeated by changing the shape of lens until! to find an optimum aberration coefficients.

The electron accelerator, as inserted between the electron source (injector) and the imaging column of the HVEM, is usually a strong lens and should be optimized in order to ensure high brightness over a wide range of accelerating voltages and illuminating conditions. This is especially true in the case of the STEM where the brightness directly determines the highest resolution attainable. In the past, the optical behavior of accelerators was usually determined for a particular configuration. During the development of the accelerator for the Arizona 1 MEV STEM, systematic investigation was made of the major optical properties for a variety of electrode configurations, number of stages N, accelerating voltages, 1 and 10 MEV, and a range of injection voltages ϕ0 = 1, 3, 10, 30, 100, 300 kV).
