Abstract

Field-enhanced biosensing has attracted considerable attention due to its capability of highly sensitive biomolecular detection and analysis. We have been developing a variety of nano-spectroscopic methods in combination with plasmonics and metamaterials where optical nanostructures play a crucial role in enhancing various optical signals (visible absorption/reflection, Raman scattering, fluorescence, and infrared absorption) from targeting biomolecules. Here in this talk, we focus on our recent works on high-sensitivity and super-resolution nano-spectroscopies for biomolecular analysis.

Author Biography

  • Taka-aki Yano, Institute of Post-LED Photonics, Tokushima University

    Taka-aki Yano received his BSc, MSc, and PhD in Applied Physics from Osaka University. After gaining experience as a postdoctoral research fellow at Osaka University, working on a project funded by the Core Research for Evolutional Science and Technology (CREST) program of the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), he joined Tokyo Institute of Technology in 2011 as an assistant professor. He moved to Tokushima University in 2019, and he is currently a professor in the Institute of Post-LED Photonics at Tokushima University. His research fields encompass nanophotonics, plasmonics, and vibrational spectroscopy.
