Photoxens design concept & Toxin structures

The project implements a Lab-on chip architecture based on (a)Laser-processed computer generated holographic CGH Sensor and (b) a Distributed Bragg Sensor using nano-imprinted functionalized waveguides.

Photonic biosensor designed to detect Aflatoxin M1, Polychlorinated dibenzo- p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and  polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

Functionalization of photonic interphases & Atomic force microscope analysis

Functionalization of photonic interphases. Sensor surface functionalization and selective small molecule captivation. Atomic force microscope analysis of Computer Generated Holographic Plasmonic. Sensor interfaces functionalized by aptamers. Optical interrogation produces sensor signals.
