Photonic crystal (PC) based bioassay techniques have many advantages in sensitive
biomolecular screening, label‐free detection, real‐time monitoring of enzyme activity, cell …

This review wants to give an overview of the photonic crystals-based biosensors for cancer
biomarkers detection. Indeed, in the last two decades, 1D, 2D, and 3D photonics crystals …

The transmission and processing of signals carried by optical beams rather than by
electrical currents or radio waves has been a topic of great interest ever since the early …

Previously reported studies indicate that aluminum nanostructured substrates can potentially
find widespread use in metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF) applications particularly in the …

We review the development and application of nanostructured photonic crystal surfaces and
a hyperspectral reflectance imaging detection instrument which, when used together …

Photonic crystal surfaces are demonstrated as a means for enhancing the detection
sensitivity and resolution for assays that use a fluorescent tag to quantify the concentration of …

In this paper, a photonic crystal waveguide platform on silicon-on-insulator substrate is
proposed in order to realize a highly sensitive refractive index based biosensor. Following …

The detection of submonolayers of proteins based on native fluorescence is a potentially
valuable approach for label-free detection. We have examined the possibility of using silver …

We report on the design, fabrication, and characterization of optical sensors based on Bloch
surface waves propagating at the truncation edge of one-dimensional photonic crystals. The …

We report on the design and demonstration of an optical imaging system capable of exciting
surface-bound fluorophores within the resonant evanescent electric field of a photonic …
