Study and development of fiber Bragg grating physical and (bio)chemical sensing solutions
Optical fiber-based sensors are game changers. Their size and multiple assets enable live monitoring of analytes and biomarkers in many practical cases. Our research is based on the discovery and understanding of new sensing mechanisms, involving the preparation of bioassays (platform and reagents) towards their integration, from A to Z.
Check out the new contribution of the team of Prof. Jacques Albert (Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada) with Efrain Villatoro, Médéric Loyez, Joel Villatoro and Christophe Caucheteur! This collaborative ACS Sensors article is entitled Dual-Mode Comb Plasmonic Optical Fiber Sensing. Surface plasmon (SP) excitation in metal-coated tilted…
The APS-unit is present at the Belgian thematic doctoral school « METAMORPHOSE » organized at UMONS this year! This event gathers researchers working on Experimental and theoretical methods: atoms, molecules and supramolecules, photons, spectra and electrons.🕵 Hadrien Fasseaux and Médéric Loyez presented their studies based on plasmonic tilted fiber…
It was nice to see the many interesting prospects in biosensors at the 8th conference on Bio-sensing Technology in Seville, Spain! Our postdoc researcher, Médéric Loyez, presented our latest research works about insulin detection and benchmarking with the SPR Biacore setup, conducted with Hadrien Fasseaux, Maxime Lobry,…
This week was intense at the conference! Hadrien Fasseaux, Mateo Tunon de lara and Médéric Loyez were presenting our latest works at SPIE Photonics Europe conference! It was a great opportunity to meet with our collaborators et create new connections for our future projects!
