Our goal was to investigate the unique monofractal and multifractal spatial patterns of these biofilms to complement the existing limited literature. The biofilms were prepared dispersing four different concentrations of kefir grains in cupuaçu juice. Our morphological analysis showed that the surface of the obtained biofilms is essentially formed by the presence of cupuaçu fibers and microorganisms like lactobacilli and yeast. The topographic height-based parameter analysis reveals that there is a dependence between surface roughness and the concentration of kefir grains used. The strongly anisotropic well-centralized topographical height distribution of the biofilms also exhibited a quasi-symmetrical and platykurtic pattern. The biofilms exhibit comparable levels of spatial complexity, surface percolation and surface homogeneity, which can be attributed to their similar topographic uniformity. This aspect was further supported by the presence of similar multifractality in the biofilms, suggesting that despite their varying topographic roughness, their vertical growth dynamics follow a similar pattern. Our findings demonstrate that the surface roughness of kefir biofilms cultivated on cupuaçu juice is influenced by the concentration of kefir grains in the precursor solution. However, this dependence follows a consistent pattern across different concentrations.

The performance of electron holography is limited by the 'shot noise' inherent in electron micrographs (holograms), which are composed of a finite number of electrons. A promising approach for addressing this issue is to use mathematical and machine learning-based image-processing techniques for hologram denoising. With the advancement of information science, denoising methods have become capable of extracting signals that are completely buried in noise, and they are being applied to electron microscopy, including electron holography. However, these advanced denoising methods are complex and have many parameters to be tuned; therefore, it is necessary to understand their principles in depth and use them carefully. Herein, we present an overview of the principles and usage of sparse coding, the wavelet hidden Markov model and tensor decomposition, which have been applied to electron holography. We also present evaluation results for the denoising performance of these methods obtained through their application to simulated and experimentally recorded holograms.

Electron holography (EH) is a powerful technique for visualizing the potential distribution with a transmission electron microscope. However, it has a serious issue that high-energy electrons may damage the organic layers, meaning that a low-dose EH is required. Here, we used a machine learning technique, three-dimensional (3D) tensor decomposition, to denoise electron interference patterns (holograms) of bilayer OLEDs composed of N,N'-di-[(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl]-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diamine (α-NPD) and tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (Alq3), acquired under a low-dose rate of 130 e- nm-2 s-1. The effect of denoising on the phase images reconstructed from the holograms was evaluated in terms of both the phase measurement error and the peak signal-to-noise ratio. We achieved a precision equivalent to that of a conventional measurement that had an exposure time 60 times longer. The electric field within the Alq3 layer decreased as the cumulative dose increased, which indicates that the Alq3 layer was degraded by the electron irradiation. On the basis of the degradation of the electric field, we concluded that the tolerance dose without damaging the OLED sample is about 1.7 × 105 e- nm-2, which is about 0.6 times that of the conventional EH. The combination of EH and 3D tensor decomposition denoising is capable of making a time series measurement of an OLED sample without any effect from the electron irradiation.</p>","PeriodicalId":74193,"journal":{"name":"Microscopy (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":"485-493"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10783859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
