Abstract: A method for obtaining chemical and/or material specific information of a sample based on scattered light. The method comprises receiving detection data comprising at least two images. Each image is indicative of the intensity of scattered light i) for incident light of a different wavelength, or ii) for incident light of a different polarization state, or iii) of a different polarization state. The scattered light comprises an elastic scattering component that is due to Rayleigh scattering of the incident light in at least a portion of the sample. Alternatively, each image is indicative of the intensity of scattered light i) of a different wavelength, or ii) for incident light of a different polarization state, or iii) of a different polarization state, wherein the scattered light comprises an inelastic scattering component that is due to Raman scattering of the incident light in at least a portion of the sample. The method further comprises determining the chemical and/or material specific information of the sample based on the change in intensity of the elastic scattering component in dependence on the change in wavelength and/or the change in polarization state of the incident and/or scattered light.

Abstract: An optical source comprises: a pump source operable to generate laser light at a first wavelength; a single mode optical fibre arranged to receive laser light at the first wavelength from the pump source, the optical fibre being fabricated from material having a Raman gain profile for stimulated Raman scattering of light at the first wavelength, and a Brillouin gain profile for stimulated Brillouin scattering of light at the second wavelength to a third wavelength longer than the second wavelength; and a superstructured fibre Bragg grating formed in the optical fibre, the grating comprising: a periodic refractive index profile along a core of the optical fibre, giving transmission of the first wavelength to allow received laser light at the first wavelength to enter the superstructured fibre Bragg grating, reflection of the second wavelength at a first level, and reflection of the third wavelength at a second level lower than the first level; and a phase shift at an intermediate location along a length of the grating; wherein the series of pulses at the third wavelength comprise a pulsed output of the optical source.

Abstract: A method of delivering optical pulses to a substrate comprises directing a focused beam from a source of optical pulses along a propagation direction onto a substrate; moving the substrate relative to the beam in a plane substantially orthogonal to the propagation direction and continuously along a first direction that includes spaced apart row locations on the substrate, and delivering a plurality of optical pulses from source as the beam reaches each row location; and between delivering the optical pulses at consecutive row locations, moving the beam relative to the substrate in one or more successive discrete movements along a second direction in the plane orthogonal to the first direction, to direct the beam to one or more spaced apart column locations on the substrate, and delivering a plurality of optical pulses from the source at each column location.

Abstract: The present invention relates to inhibitors of HIF-1 and HIF-2 and uses thereof. The present invention further relates to the inhibitors for use in treatment of diseases. An isolated polypeptide is provided, that prevents dimerization of HIF-1α with HIF-1β and HIF-2α with HIF-1β and/or inhibits the activity of HIF-1 and HIF-2, wherein the polypeptide comprises the amino acid sequence C-X1-X2-X3-Z-X4 (SEQ ID NO: 1) and wherein X1, X2, X3 and X4 are any amino acid and wherein Z is leucine, valine of isoleucine or a non-natural derivative or leucine, valine or isoleucine. The isolated polypeptide prevents dimerization of HIF-1α with HIF-1β and HIF-2α with HIF-1β and inhibits the activity of HIF-1 and HIF-2 by binding to HIF-1α or HIF-1β and/or HIF-2α or HIF-1β.
