We study the integration of plasmonic traps with microfluidic channels. Plasmonic traps are optical traps that use the evanescent field generated by metallic nanostructures at their plasmon resonance to trap small objects. Contrary to conventional - far-fi ...

G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most abundant class of proteins in the cell body. Such receptors are of major interest as potential therapeutic targets. Downscaling and parallelization of bioanalytics opens novel routes to rapidly screen and id ...
The main aim of this project was to develop novel concepts for miniaturization of bioanalytical techniques for investigating biomolecular interactions. We used optical tweezers to selectively address individual biological objects in microfluidic channels. ...
Near field generated by plasmonic structures has recently been proposed to trap small objects. We report the first integration of plasmonic trapping with microfluidics for lab-on-a-chip applications. A three-layer plasmo-microfluidic chip is used to demons ...
The present thesis develops some specific aspects of digital holographic microscopy (DHM), namely the effect of shot noise on the phase image accuracy, the use of DHM in micro-tomography and in aberrations evaluation of a microscope objective (MO). DHM is ...
We present a multiple laser tweezers system based on refractive optics. The system produces an array of 100 optical traps thanks to a refractive microlens array, whose focal plane is imaged into the focal plane of a high-NA microscope objective. This refra ...
Optical trapping allows manipulating very small objects – varying from Angstöms to micron size particles – without physical contact by taking advantage of laser light. This technique, relying on light momentum transfer, allows manipulating biological matte ...
One crucial challenge for subwavelength optics has been the development of a tunable source of coherent laser radiation for use in the physical, information and biological sciences that is stable at room temperature and physiological conditions. Current ad ...
Low-cost and high-resolution on-chip microscopes are vital for reducing cost and improving efficiency for modern biomedicine and bioscience. Despite the needs, the conventional microscope design has proven difficult to miniaturize. Here, we report the impl ...
Micro-optical compo nents offer several possibilities for creating large matrices of optical traps, either when working on inverted microscopes, or by directly integrating miniaturized optical components at the level of a micro-fluidic chip. In thisarticle ...
