Activities:
The Nanophotonic Devices group at ICFO carries out research on micro and nanodevices for photonic applications. The topics currently investigated include the development of novel evanescent-wave photonic sensors and the fabrication, characterisation and optimisation of organic and hybrid light emitting devices.

Projects:
Evanescent-wave optical sensing
Hybrid organic-inorganic layer structures towards devices for photonic applications
Novel optical methods for selfassembled nanostructures

Available Resources:
Optical and characterisation tools:
  • Scanning electron microscope
  • Atomic force microscope
  • Profilometer
  • Scanning near-field optical microscope
  • Several light sources, including a tunable ArKr, diode lasers, etc.
  • Optical microscope equipped for photoluminescence characterisation
  • CCD cameras
Fabrication facilities:
  • Electron-beam lithography
  • Optical lithography
  • Thin-film deposition
  • Plasma etching
  • Chemical benches, etc.
