Cutting-edge coverage of nanobiophotonics
Written by global experts, Nanobiophotonics offers in-depth details on this emerging, cross-disciplinary field. After discussions on cancer cell biology, electromagnetic fields, and nanophotonics, the book delves into nanobiophtoonics technologies and current research areas. This pioneering work covers the latest nanoscale and superresolution medical imaging methods and biomedical applications.
Nanobiophotonics covers:
Tissue pathology Light scattering by inhomogeneous media Nonlinear optics Vision restoration Optical low-coherence interferometric techniques Plasmonics and metamaterials Infrared spectroscopic imaging Scattering, absorbing, and modulating nanoprobes for coherence imaging Second-harmonic generation imaging of collagen-based systems Plasmon resonance energy transfer nanospectroscopy Erythrocyte nanoscale flickering as a marker for disease Superresolution far-field fluorescence microscopyAuthor Notes
Gabriel Popescu is an Assistant Professor at Beckman Institute for Advanced Science & Technology, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Bioengineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He and his colleagues started the Nanobiophotonics Summer School at the Beckman Institute in 2009. The school was sponsored by the Network for Computational Nanotechnology (NCN), which is funded by the National Science Foundation. Plans for future Nanobiophotonics Summer School sessions are currently underway.
