This book describes the state of the art in the field of bioanalytical nano- and microsystems with optical functionality. In 12 chapters distinguished scientists and leaders in their respective fields show how various optical technologies have been miniaturized and integrated over the last few decades in order to be combined with nano- and microsystems for applications in the life sciences. The main detection and characterization technologies are introduced, and examples of the superiority of these integrated approaches compared to traditional ones are provided. Examples from e.g. the fields of optical waveguides, integrated interferometers, surface plasmon resonance or Raman spectroscopy are introduced and discussed, and it is shown how these approaches have led to novel functionalities and thereby novel applications.
Über den Autor / die Autorin
Jürgen Popp, geboren 1966, promovierte 1995 in Chemie an der Universität Würzburg.1996 verbrachte er ein Jahr am Institut für Physik der Yale University, USA. Im Anschluss schloss er sich der Gruppe von Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. W. Kiefer, University of Würzburg, an, wo er sich im Jahre 2000 habilitierte. Im Mai 2002 folgte er dem Ruf als Professor an die Uni-versität von Jena. Für seine Arbeit wurdeer 1995 mit den Fakultätspreis in Chemie ausgezeichnet, 1997 erhielt der den Bayerischen Habilitationsförderpreis, 2001 den Förderpreis der Würzburger Korporationen und 2002 den Kirchhoff-Bunsen Preis. Seine Forschungsinteressen konzentrieren sich auf Biophysikalischeche Systeme, die Beleuchtung molekularer Strukturaktivitäten oder strukturdynamische Beziehungen in Biomolekülen, die Erforschung einzelner Mikropartikel sowie die Entwicklung von neuer spektroskopischer Messtechniken.Seit 2000 ist er außerdem wissenschaftlicher Beirat der Zeitschrift "Journal of Raman Spectroscopy".
