Dieletric-filled nanowaveguide provides a nanoscopic illumination source facilitating the study of biological samples such as cell membrane at the single molecule level.

Our GROUP

Text Box: The nanooptics and biophysics laboratory at St. John’s University studies novel optical phenomena in nanostructures of various materials and explores applications of these properties in biophysics research and biomedical fields. Current projects include optical transmission through dielectric-filled subwavelength apertures, the development of nanoaperture-based single molecule spectroscopy techniques and super-resolution biomedical imaging devices, and the use of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy in characterizing nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems.
