Dopamine "Skittle Rain" Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
A small quantity of powdered dopamine was placed on a glass slide and heated to a temperature exceeding its melting point. In doing so, it sizzled and splattered across the substrate, forming a random distribution of pools and microdroplets on the glass surface. In time, as the temperature decreased, these droplets slowly changed phase from liquid to the crystalline state where the molecules orientate themselves in such a way that the overall crystal exhibits an optical property called birefringence. Depending on both the thickness and orientation of the crystal grains, the frozen droplets appear to take on different interference colours when imaged with polarised light microscopy

Nature Geometry Fine Art Print
€95,00
- This is a close-up of chemicals found in skin cream: lactic and salicylic acid. When mixed in a specific ratio, this remarkable formation self-assembles when the conditions are ripe. The mixture undergoes two stages of crystallisation, with this being the first stage before it reorients itself into a different formation. Imaged with polarised light microscopy

Air Bubbles Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
Air bubbles in a sugary syrup. In a race to minimise energy and reach an energetically favoured state of equilibrium, a tug-of-war ensues between many thousands of trapped air pockets and the compressing effects of the surrounding viscous liquid. A bubble is a balancing act of forces that occur between its internal air pressure pushing outward on its membrane and the compressive forces of the surrounding liquid trying to crush it inwards. As a result, the molecular field density and thus the optical path length surrounding the air pockets will be significantly distorted. This effect can be seen by the vivid, coloured bands immediately surrounding the bubble aggregations. Imaged with polarised light microscopy

Autumn Leaf Litter Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
As winter is fast approaching in Northern Europe, the Sun tracks lower and lower across the Southern sky. It’s radiance begins to wane and the green chlorophyll pigments within the cells of leaves begin to break down, giving way to golden yellows and vibrant reds and oranges. Besides chlorophyll, plants also contain other pigments called carotenoids and anthocyanins which give leaves their autumn colours when the green chlorophyll disappears. The colour change takes place in order for plants and trees to save valuable energy. The production of chlorophyll is an energy expensive process and so plants break down chlorophyll and pump it out of the leaves for storage before letting the leaves fall away. Sunlight reflects differently off the leaves depending on the levels of carotenoids and anthocyanins present within them. Carotenoids produce yellows, oranges and red whilst anthocyanins produce reds, pinks and purple colours.
This image is not of a forest floor strewn with leaves however, but is a stain left behind from a solution of caesium chloride, imaged with polarised light microscopy

Veranera Vine Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
This image brings to mind a particular plant native to Amazonia, the tropical climbing woody vine, Bougainvillea, also known as Veranera. Its beautiful magenta-scarlet inflorescence consists of three leaf-like petals called bracts that surround its delicate white flowers. Veranera conserves its resources by using the trees as scaffolds, wrapping its tendrils around the trunk and branches in a tight vice-like grip. By doing so, energy is conserved, allowing the plant to expend it on other processes like rapid growth and accelerated leaf production, which are alternately arranged along its stems. The image was made from a crystalline film of caesium chloride, an inorganic compound used in nuclear medicine in the treatment of cancer, imaged with polarised light microscopy

The thickness of the film varies diagonally across the frame, with the lower right being thickest and thinning out diagonally towards the upper right like a wedge. Second-order colours dominate the lower right. Regions that appear black are where the film is so thin that light passes straight through unhindered. The turbulent flows within the film are caused by air currents shearing over the surface and by the Marangoni effect. Imaged with polarised light microscopy

Invisible Made Visible Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
Fluid dynamics is a branch of physics describing the flow of liquids. The movement of liquid can be categorised as laminar or turbulent and the magnitude of that flow can be quantified by the Reynolds number. In this case, the fluid flowing around, and in the wake of the bubbles is smooth and laminar. This of course makes sense because the fluid here is molten viscous sucrose (table sugar) and the bubbles move relatively slowly through it. Otherwise invisible, the flow is made visible here through a technique called differential interference contrast in the light microscope

Fractured Flake Fine Art Print
€95,00

This is a flake of acetaminophen (Paracetamol). The lower half of the crystal flake has a fracture running across it, probably as a result of stresses induced as the droplet cooled and underwent expansion. The colours are related to the thickness, with same colour denoting areas of equal thickness. Imaged with polarised light microscopy

Brilliant Radiance Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
Four large crystals surrounded by an extremely thin film of Vitamin C. The thin film, illuminated from beneath with plane-polarised light, results in strikingly colourful optical interference patterns. These patterns arise due to the complex interplay between the illuminating light field and the atomic planes of the doubly refracting crystal lattice. Bands of the same colour correspond to equal or integer multiples (1, 2, 3, …, n) of the wavelength differences in pathlength through the crystal. Dislocations in the crystal film can be seen as straight lines where the coloured bands appear to converge. Imaged with polarised light microscopy

Voronoi Kaleidoscope Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
Powdered dopamine was smeared across a glass slide, melted and cooled to give rise to the formation of a vast number of individual crystal grains as it undergoes a change of phase from a liquid to a solid crystalline state. Because of the physical structure of this substance, dazzling kaleidoscopic colours can be seen when viewed through crossed polarisers. Such materials are said to be optically active as they twist the plane of polarisation of light when imaged with polarised light microscopy

When mixed in a specific ratio, this remarkable formation self-assembles when the conditions are ripe. The mixture undergoes two stages of crystallisation, with this being the second stage.

Cosmiscape Fine Art Print
€95,00
-
When two fluids of different surface tensions are mixed, a complex interplay of fluid dynamics unfolds. In this case, the fluid is a mixture of washing up liquid and water. By introducing some sugar into the mixture, the lifetime of the film can be extended, whilst the continuous film breaks up into islands, as seen here. The islands are lipid globules floating on a thin film whose thickness is too thin to support the interference of light, so that it appears as black as space. On the other hand, the islands and continuous lipid film produce dazzling interference colours because their film thickness is on the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of light. Variations in colour are a result of the modulations in the thickness of the film. The film is thickest in the lower right of the image and gradually thins out diagonally towards the upper right, before completely falling off to several nanometers where it becomes jet black. Magnification 150x. Imaged with polarised light microscopy
