Development and evaluation of highly sensitive, optical spectroscopy methods and probes, aimed towards highest spectroscopic sensitivity and spatial resolution
- Harnessing strong light-matter interaction for improving optical spectroscopy methods, e.g., via electronic surface states, stimulated Brillouin scattering, and plasmonic excitations
- Development of optical or plasmonic scanning probes for spatially resolved spectroscopy
- Development of nanophotonic components / systems, and sensor arrays, e.g., for environmental monitoring
- Collaborations with departments of chemical analysis and optical metrology within the PTB (German National Metrology Institute)
