Article Abstract
In this study, a wide-angle auxiliary fill lamp (WAFL) intended to assist the built-in flashlight of smartphone cameras had been proposed in simulations and measurements. The WAFL generates a donut-shaped light pattern that perfectly combines with the light pattern produced by a pre-improved smartphone flashlight (SF). The improved SF provides a broader and more uniform light energy distribution, so as to effectively solve the problem of insufficient SF illumination range. In addition, an image processing method which uses the known illumination distribution of the SF to simply calibrate the luminance of the image and enhance its uniformity, is also proposed in this study. According to the experimental results, uniformity and the signal-to-noise ratio of an image taken with a camera using the improved SF are better than those taken with a camera using only the SF.

Luminescence thermometry presents precise remote temperature measurement capabilities but faces significant challenges in real-world applications, primarily stemming from the calibration's susceptibility to environmental factors. External factors can compromise accuracy, necessitating resilient measurement protocols to ensure dependable temperature (T) readings across various settings. We explore a novel three-dimensional (3D) approach based on time-gated (t) luminescence thermometric parameters, (,), employing physical mixtures of surface-engineered carbon dots (CDs) based on dibenzoylmethane and rhodamine B.

The outbreak of COVID-19 exposed the inadequacy of our technical tools for home health surveillance, and recent studies have shown the potential of smartphones as a universal optical microscopic imaging platform for such applications. However, most of them use laboratory-grade optomechanical components and transmitted illuminations to ensure focus tuning capability and imaging quality, which keeps the cost of the equipment high. Here, we propose an ultra-low-cost solution for smartphone microscopy.

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay has been widely developed for biomarker detection, but most include heavy and expensive instruments that are not suited for portable and on-site detection. In this work, the PEC immunoassay platform for mobile phones was reported for flexible, rapid, low-cost detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The PEC detection platform was successfully composed of disposable screen-printed carbon electrodes, a micro-electrochemical workstation, a flashlight (the excitation light source), and a smartphone with a companion software with a micro-electrochemical workstation for rapid and on-site detection of target biomarkers.
