We investigate new and improved ways of making light interact with very small matter, particularly by designing metal and semiconductor nanostructures.

We are pushing Optics to the nanometer scale by using, for example, molecules, atomically thin materials, and tailored nanostructures. Our goal is to bridge fundamental science into nanophotonic applications in ultrasensitive biochemical sensors.

Check out some of our current and recent developments on:

including molecular circular dichroism

including their application as imaging sensors

including applications in optical metrology and biosensing
