Sum frequency generation spectroscopy of the attachment disc of a spider

Yue Zhao, Lin Liang, Yanrong Li +3

The pyriform silk of the attachment disc of a spider was studied using infrared-visible vibrational sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. The spider can attach dragline and…

Observation of Spider Silk by Femtosecond Pulse Laser Second Harmonic Generation Microscopy

Yue Zhao, Yanrong Li, K. T. T. Hien +2

An asymmetric \b{eta}-sheet structure of spider silk is said to induce optical second harmonic generation. In this paper, using an in-house non-scanning type femtosecond pulse lase…

Ungerminated Rice Grains Observed by Femtosecond Pulse Laser Second-Harmonic Generation Microscopy

Yue Zhao, Shogo Takahashi, Yanrong Li +4

As a demonstration that second-order nonlinear optical microscopy is a powerful tool for rice grain science, we observed second-harmonic generation (SHG) images of amylose-free glu…

Electric Field Effect on Optical Second-harmonic Generation of Amphoteric Megamolecule Aggregates

Yue Zhao, Yanrong Li, Khuat Thi Thu Hien +5

We have detected second-order nonlinear optical response from an amphoteric mega-saccharides named sacran under a needle/ring electrode stimulus by using an optical second harmonic…

Optical Second-harmonic Images of Sacran Megamolecule Aggregates

Yue Zhao, Khuat Thi Thu Hien, Goro Mizutani +4

We have detected a second-order nonlinear optical response from aggregates of the ampholytic megamolecular polysaccharide sacran extracted from cyanobacterial biomaterials, by usin…
