DESCRIPTION:AbstractIn this seminar\, I will describe the principles and i
 nstrumentation development of a novel\, high performance inexpensive near-
 infrared multispectral imaging (NIR-MSI) microscope which was developed re
 cently in our laboratory. This NIR-MSI microscope is based on an acousto-o
 ptic tunable filter for spectrally scanning and either an InSb or a HgCdTe
  focal plane arrays infrared camera for NIR images recording. The high sen
 sitivity (single pixel resolution) and high spatial resolution (~0.9 um/pi
 xel) of the NIR-MSI microscope\, coupled with its ability to measure image
 s and spectra directly and simultaneously\, makes it possible for us to us
 e\, for the first time\, for measurements which are not possible with exis
 ting instruments/techniques. These include in situ monitoring of the size\
 , morphology\, spectroscopic properties and lower critical solution temper
 ature (LCST) of individual hydrogel particles\, the localized surface plas
 mon resonance of individual gold nanoshell and gold nanocage particles\, a
 nd the noninvasive detection and identification of melanoma and other type
  of skin cancers.BiosketchChieu D. Tran received his B.S. degree from Kuma
 moto University in Japan and his Ph. D. from Texas A & M University. He jo
 ined Brookhaven National Laboratory as a Staff Scientist in 1982 after spe
 nding two years doing post- doctoral research at the Royal Institution of 
 Great Britain. He joined the faculty at Marquette University in 1986\, and
  currently is the Pfletschinger-Habermann Distinguished Professor of Chemi
 stry. He has received numerous awards including the 2005 Lawrence G. Hagge
 rty Award for Research Excellence\, the 2004 American Chemical Society (AC
 S)\, Milwaukee Section Award\, the Senior Invitation Fellowship given by t
 he Japan Society for Promotion of Science (JSPS)\, the 2002 Sigma Xi Award
  for Distinguished Scientific Research Achievement\, the 1999 Gold Medal A
 ward given by the New York Section of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy
  (SAS)\, the Shannon Award given by the National Institutes of Health (NIH
 )\, and the 1992 Perkin-Elmer International Liquid Chromatography Technica
 l Paper Award. He has been on Editorial Advisory Boards of several journal
 s including Analytical Letters\, Applied Spectroscopy Reviews\, Microchemi
 cal Journal and Talanta.\n\nhttps://events.saifa.rs/event/203/
