An optomicrofluidic device was developed by introducing 3D wettability patterns into hollow SiO2 sphere colloidal photonic crystals. Aqueous liquids flow through the superhydrophilic channel due to the surface tension confinement effect. Based on the significant fluorescence enhancement from photonic band gap (PBG) effects in these channels, real-time specific bioassays with high sensitivity were realized.
Polar Metal-Organic Frameworks have potential applications as functional non-linear optical, piezoelectric, pyroelectric and ferroelectric materials. Using second harmonic generation microscopy we found that fluoride doping of the microporous iron(III) terephthalate MOF MIL-53(Fe) induces a polar organization in its structure, which was not previously detected with XRD.
