Linear Dynamical Identification: An Integral Transform seen as a Complex Wavelet Transform

This paper presents a technique that allows the direct linearidentification of frequency response functions from the computation ofa weighted integral transform. This transform allows toemphasize the influence of the poles and zeros of the frequencyresponse functions its formation is based on the Cauchy--Weierstrass theorem. It isthen shown that this transform is directly linked to a complex wavelettransform. This representation with a wavelet transform provides abetter understanding of the amplification effects of the weightedintegral transform and allows the singularities analysis.     

Advances in surface plasmon resonance-based high throughput biochips

This article reviews our recent advances in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) based biochips. It includes four issues, which are the preparation and characterization of high quality gold film, the preparation and characterization of self-assembled monolayer (SAM), dynamics of DNA adsorption on SAMs, and SPRbased microscopies. Numerous topics related to SPR, such as, the modeling of SPR by transmission matrix, effective medium theory, applications of SPR in biology, and SPR-based novel microscopies, are discussed. A novel electrochemical technique, which is extremely useful for the preparation and characterization of high quality SAMs, is also discussed.
