Ultrafast Biophotonics
Springer | Optics & Lasers | August 13, 2016 | ISBN-10: 3319396129 | 290 pages | pdf | 6.4 mb
Authors: Vasa, P., Mathur, D.
Highlights the application of contemporary techniques of ultrafast laser science to biological sciences
Features new opportunities for research on the interface of physics and biology
Provides new insights into biological entities and processes

This book presents emerging contemporary optical techniques of ultrafast science which have opened entirely new vistas for probing biological entities and processes. The spectrum reaches from time-resolved imaging and multiphoton microscopy to cancer therapy and studies of DNA damage. The book displays interdisciplinary research at the interface of physics and biology. Emerging topics on the horizon are also discussed, like the use of squeezed light, frequency combs and terahertz imaging as the possibility of mimicking biological systems. The book is written in a manner to make it readily accessible to researchers, postgraduate biologists, chemists, engineers, and physicists and students of optics, biomedical optics, photonics and biotechnology
