OUR MISSION
Capturing what happens in the nano domain
A versatile platform for chemical and biosensing application, with a wide dynamic measurement range, quick results, and user-friendly design.
From process monitoring to material characterization, chemical sensing to biomolecular detection, U-FOS is designed to be a one-stop solution for all your sensing requirements.
Various Applications
Highly Sensitive Refractive Index Sensing
This platform has high sensitivity towards the change in refractive index (RI). Thus, finding a wide range of applications.
Detecting Biomolecules with Unmatched Precision
Our sensor platform is ideal for immunoassays and nucleic acid assays, enabling the detection and quantification of specific proteins, hormones, DNA, RNA and other biomolecules. The wide range of detection makes our platform a versatile tool.
Real time characterization of optically active materials (through EWA) or optically inactive materials through RI change
Improvement of sensitivity of an optical sensor using plasmonic nanomaterials has been the research focus in the recent decades. U-FOS surface can be made plasmonically active through physisorption, chemisorption, or sputtering of nanomaterials such as gold or silver. In-situ growth or binding of nanoparticles can be studied real-time using U-FOS. Such characterization studies have been reported in [1, 2].
