The project aims to advance research in selected areas of nanobiophotonics with a focus on photonic molecular biosensors based on plasmonic nanostructures. The main areas of research in this project include research into plasmonic phenomena on metallic nanostructures, development of novel tools for the analysis and design of plasmonic nanostructures, fabrication and experimental characterization of plasmonic nanostructures having potential for Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) and Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) sensing, interfacing biomolecules with inorganic nanostructures as well as the investigation of the interactions between such biophotonic structures and biological samples, and realization of SPR and SERS biosensors for the detection of oncohematological disease biomarkers.
IPE carries out fundamental and applied research in the scientific fields of photonics, optoelectronics and electronics. In these fields, IPE generates new knowledge and develops new technologies.
