2022 ANNUAL REPORT

61 Prof. Fixler Dror Faculty of Engineering Director of BINA Photonics Center Research Areas • Fluorescence lifetime and anisotropy decay • Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) • Biological imaging based on fluorescence parameters • Super resolution • Light-tissue interaction Abstract Nano photonics, Fluorescence Imaging and Microscopy Research Fixler’s lab deals with theoretical and practical models for reconstructing the optical properties of participating media by nano photonic tools. Our theory is based on a robust generalization of the diffusion theory; Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm; dipole-dipole approximation and other methods. Onthe practical side we use lasers, LEDs and microscopes. Nanodiamond applied on ex vivo skin samples and penetrated through all skin layers: epidermis, dermis, and fat. Using a non-invasive laser based optical technique we profiled the nanodiamonds’ permeation: the nanodiamonds concentration reduces as the layer is deeper.
