Optical label-free biosensors based on photonic crystals

Main Researcher: Elewout Hallynck

There are several approaches to achieving an optical label-free biosensor (e.g. ring resonators, surface plasmon resonance) and one of those is the use of photonic crystals. Their potential for biosensing applications will be extensively investigated.
Also, a novel technique for microfluidics in combination with these photonic crystals is being looked into.
