Detection of the Resonant Vibration of the Cellular Membrane Using Femtosecond Laser Pulses

An optical detection technique is developed to detect and measure the resonant vibration of the cellular membrane. Biological membranes are active components of living cells and play a complex and dynamic role in life processes. They are believed to have oscillation modes of frequencies in the range...
