Williams S, Pulsifer D, Shaler R, Ramotowski R, Brazelle S, Lakhtakia A
J Forensic Sci . 2014 Nov; 60(2):295-302. PMID: 25421147
Both the columnar-thin-film (CTF) and the vacuum-metal-deposition (VMD) techniques for visualizing sebaceous fingermarks require the deposition of a material thereon in a vacuum chamber. Despite that similarity, there are many...

Williams S, Pulsifer D, Lakhtakia A, Shaler R
J Forensic Sci . 2014 Oct; 60(1):179-85. PMID: 25284136
A fingermark on a nonporous substrate can be developed by depositing a columnar thin film (CTF) on it, but the CTF technique's sensitivity for low-quality fingermarks is unknown. The optimized...

Domingue M, Lakhtakia A, Pulsifer D, Hall L, Badding J, Bischof J, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2014 Sep; 111(39):14106-11. PMID: 25225359
Recent advances in nanoscale bioreplication processes present the potential for novel basic and applied research into organismal behavioral processes. Insect behavior potentially could be affected by physical features existing at...

Pulsifer D, Faryad M, Lakhtakia A, Hall A, Liu L
Opt Lett . 2014 Apr; 39(7):2125-8. PMID: 24686691
The Dyakonov-Tamm wave was experimentally excited along the periodically corrugated interface of magnesium fluoride as the isotropic homogeneous partnering material and a zinc-selenide chiral sculptured thin film (STF) as the...

Muhlberger S, Pulsifer D, Lakhtakia A, Martin-Palma R, Shaler R
J Forensic Sci . 2014 Jan; 59(1):94-102. PMID: 24400828
A form of physical vapor deposition, called the conformal-evaporated-film-by-rotation (CEFR) method, was optimized for the conformal deposition of columnar thin films (CTFs) on sebaceous fingermarks. Relying on the surface topology...

Strout G, Russell S, Pulsifer D, Erten S, Lakhtakia A, Lee D
Ann Bot . 2013 Aug; 112(6):1141-8. PMID: 23960046
Background And Aims: Blue-green iridescence in the tropical rainforest understorey sedge Mapania caudata creates structural coloration in its leaves through a novel photonic mechanism. Known structures in plants producing iridescent...

Pulsifer D, Muhlberger S, Williams S, Shaler R, Lakhtakia A
Forensic Sci Int . 2013 Jul; 231(1-3):204-7. PMID: 23890638
The grading of fingerprint quality by fingerprint examiners as currently practised is a subjective process. Therefore, an objective system was devised to remove the subjectivity. The devised grading system is...

Swiontek S, Pulsifer D, Lakhtakia A
Sci Rep . 2013 Mar; 3:1409. PMID: 23474988
The commonly used optical sensor based on surface plasmon-polariton wave phenomenon can sense just one chemical, because only one SPP wave can be guided by the interface of a metal...

Lakhtakia A, Shaler R, Martin-Palma R, Motyka M, Pulsifer D
J Forensic Sci . 2011 Feb; 56(3):612-6. PMID: 21306377
Various vacuum techniques are employed to develop fingermarks on evidentiary items. In this work, a vacuum was used to deposit columnar thin films (CTFs) on untreated, cyanoacrylate-fumed or dusted fingermarks...
