Optical and Photonic Biosensors
A section of Biosensors (ISSN 2079-6374).
Section Information
The section will cover the wide research area of optical and photonic biosensors, which are mainly intended for health applications, environmental monitoring, and food/water quality control. Some of these technologies are quite mature, while others are extremely new, e.g., all-dielectric metasurface-based biosensors.
Potential topics:
- Microphotonic chip-based biosensors;
- Fiber-optic biosensors;
- Plasmonic biosensors;
- Spectroscopy for biosensing;
- Optical trapping for biosensing;
- Nanoplasmonic biosensor for in vivo and in vitro analysis;
- 3D printing for optical biosensor fabrication;
- Evanescent wave fluorescence biosensors;
- Bioluminescent biosensors;
- Photoelectrochemical biosensors;
- Electrochemiluminescence biosensors;
- Terahertz-biosensing technology;
- Raman spectroscopy in biosensing applications;
- Optical bioimaging for clinic and diagnosis applications;
- Ellipsometric-based novel biosensors.
