Holographic Integrated Photonics Platform for the Optical Analysis of Biological Samples

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

We propose to develop an integrated photonic platform based on holographic metasurfaces (HIPPO) for the high-throughputimaging of biological specimens in microfluidic environments. The integrated platform combines high spatial resolution and largefield of view acquisition with the throughput requirements of modern screening techniques. Current solutions rely upon complexillumination systems and bulky imaging setups to increase the spatial spectrum range and reduce the background fluorescence.The goal of this project is to move the complexity to a portable optofluidic chip and pave the way for high-throughput assays in everybiology lab, turning high-throughput and high-resolution microscopy into an instrument for biologists, rather than for biophysicists.
