Both the LAE as well as the LAPS shares the principle of addressing the active spot by means of a light beam. This enables both systems to manipulate resp. to detect an analyte with a high spatial resolution. Hence, combining both principles into a single set-up enables the active stimulation e.g., by means of electrolysis and a simultaneous observation e.g., the response of an entrapped biological cell by detection of extracellular pH changes. The work will describe the principles of both technologies and the necessary steps to integrate them into a single set-up. Furthermore, examples of application and operation of such systems will be presented.}, language = {en} } @article{MuribTranCeunincketal.2012, author = {Murib, Mohammed S. and Tran, Anh Quang and Ceuninck, Ward de and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Nesladek, Milos and Serpeng{\"u}zel, Ali and Wagner, Patrick}, title = {Analysis of an optical biosensor based on elastic light scattering from diamond-, glass-, and sapphire microspheres}, series = {Physica Status Solidi A}, volume = {209}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi A}, number = {9}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1862-6319}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201100795}, pages = {1804 -- 1810}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and protein recognition are now standard tools in biology. In addition, the special optical properties of microsphere resonators expressed by the high quality factor (Q-factor) of whispering gallery modes (WGMs) or morphology dependent resonances (MDRs) have attracted the attention of the biophotonic community. Microsphere-based biosensors are considered as powerful candidates to achieve label-free recognition of single molecules due to the high sensitivity of their WGMs. When the microsphere surface is modified with biomolecules, the effective refractive index and the effective size of the microsphere change resulting in a resonant wavelength shift. The transverse electric (TE) and the transverse magnetic (TM) elastic light scattering intensity of electromagnetic waves at 600 and 1400 nm are numerically calculated for DNA and unspecific binding of proteins to the microsphere surface. The effect of changing the optical properties was studied for diamond (refractive index 2.34), glass (refractive index 1.50), and sapphire (refractive index 1.75) microspheres with a 50 µm radius. The mode spacing, the linewidth of WGMs, and the shift of resonant wavelength due to the change in radius and refractive index, were analyzed by numerical simulations. Preliminary results of unspecific binding of biomolecules are presented. The calculated shift in WGMs can be used for biomolecules detection.}, language = {en} } @article{BohrnStuetzFleischeretal.2013, author = {Bohrn, Ulrich and St{\"u}tz, Evamaria and Fleischer, Maximilian and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Wagner, Patrick}, title = {Using a cell-based gas biosensor for investigation of adverse effects of acetone vapors in vitro}, series = {Biosensors and Bioelectronics. 40 (2013), H. 1}, journal = {Biosensors and Bioelectronics. 40 (2013), H. 1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {0956-5663}, pages = {393 -- 400}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Kotliar2008, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin}, title = {Functional in-vivo assessment and biofluidmechanical analysis of age-related and pathological microstructural changes in retinal vessels [Elektronische Ressource]}, publisher = {-}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Kotliar1998, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin}, title = {Razrabotka i analiz matematicheskih modelei nezavisimogo i svyazannogo funkcionirovaniya drenazhnoi i akkomodacionnoi regulyatornyh sistem chelovecheskogo glaza}, publisher = {-}, pages = {328 S.}, year = {1998}, language = {ru} } @book{Grotendorst2012, author = {Grotendorst, Johannes}, title = {Hierarchical methods for dynamics in complex molecular systems : IAS Winter School, 5 - 9 March 2012, Forschungszentrum J{\"u}lich GmbH ; lecture notes / ed. by Johannes Grotendorst, Godehard Sutmann, Gerhard Gompper, Dominik Marx}, publisher = {Forschungszentrum J{\"u}lich}, address = {J{\"u}lich}, isbn = {978-3-89336-768-9}, pages = {VI, 540 S. zahlr.

For example, in DFT (density functional theory) calculations on modern supercomputers 10\% to 30\% of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of huge dense matrices have to be calculated. Therefore, performance and parallel scaling of the used eigensolvers is of upmost interest. In this article different routines of the linear algebra packages ScaLAPACK and Elemental for parallel solution of the symmetric eigenvalue problem are compared concerning their performance on the BlueGene/P supercomputer. Parameters for performance optimization are adjusted for the different data distribution methods used in the two libraries. It is found that for all test cases the new library Elemental which uses a two-dimensional element by element distribution of the matrices to the processors shows better performance than the old ScaLAPACK library which uses a block-cyclic distribution.}, language = {en} } @article{Grotendorst2012, author = {Grotendorst, Johannes}, title = {Supercomputer programmieren - ein besonderes Studienangebot in J{\"u}lich}, series = {Junge Wissenschaft. 27 (2012), H. 94}, journal = {Junge Wissenschaft. 27 (2012), H. 94}, publisher = {-}, isbn = {0179-8529}, pages = {12 -- 14}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @article{Grotendorst2012, author = {Grotendorst, Johannes}, title = {IAS Winter School: Hierarchical Methods for Dynamics in Complex Molecular Systems}, series = {Innovatives Supercomputing in Deutschland : inSiDE. 10 (2012), H. 1}, journal = {Innovatives Supercomputing in Deutschland : inSiDE. 10 (2012), H. 1}, publisher = {-}, pages = {104}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{HennemannKohlReisertetal.2013, author = {Hennemann, J{\"o}rg and Kohl, Claus-Dieter and Reisert, Steffen and Kirchner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Copper oxide nanofibres for detection of hydrogen peroxide vapour at high concentrations}, series = {physica status solidi (a)}, volume = {210}, journal = {physica status solidi (a)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1862-6319}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201200775}, pages = {859 -- 863}, year = {2013}, abstract = {We present a sensor concept based on copper(II)oxide (CuO) nanofibres for the detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) vapour in the percent per volume (\% v/v) range. The fibres were produced by using the electrospinning technique. To avoid water condensation in the pores, the fibres were initially modified by an exposure to H2S to get an enclosed surface. By a thermal treatment at 350 °C the fibres were oxidised back to CuO. Thereby, the visible pores disappear which was verified by SEM analysis. The fibres show a decrease of resistance with increasing H2O2 concentration which is due to the fact that hydrogen peroxide is an oxidising gas and CuO a p-type semiconductor. The sensor shows a change of resistance within the minute range to the exposure until the maximum concentration of 6.9\% v/v H2O2. At operating temperatures below 450 °C the corresponding sensor response to a concentration of 4.1\% v/v increases. The sensor shows a good reproducibility of the signal at different measurements. CuO seems to be a suitable candidate for the detection of H2O2 vapour at high concentrations. Resistance behaviour of the sensor under exposure to H2O2 vapours between 2.3 and 6.9\% v/v at an operating temperature of 450 °C.}, language = {en} }
