Photonics is among the most promising areas for innovations in science and technology in today’s rapidly changing world, especially in the field of medicine. This new book, Photonic Sensors for Biomedical Applications, provides an overview of a wide range of new and innovative technologies and current applications of photonic sensors for biomedical applications. It covers many areas such as biosensors, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors, one- and two-dimensional photonic crystals for sensing and detection applications, muscle strength monitoring using optical sensors, glucose sensing, AI in photonics, and many more.

The book first provides an overview of the basic elements that make up the photonic sensors, starting from the principles of light-matter interaction to the complexities surrounding optical waveguides. The authors then delve into the richest part of the field of sensors: biosensors that are made for detecting and measuring certain biochemical substances.

The photonic sensors discussed include one-dimensional photonic crystal sensors, versatile fiber Bragg gratings sensors, and highly sensitive surface plasmon resonance sensors. The exciting realm of MEMS optical sensors that illustrate the union of miniaturization and photonics in sensing technology is also covered, along with case studies. The authors also take us through using artificial intelligence with photonics sensors that help improve data analysis, pattern recognition, and decision-making.

Key features:

  • Emphasizes the significant role that photonic sensors play for monitoring and detecting various types of targets for medical applications
  • Provides details on the simulation methods used
  • Discusses sensor design using MEMS, photonic crystals, and fibers
  • Explores the integration of AI with optical sensors
  • Covers optimization of the structure to increase the sensor performance parameters

This volume will be an enlightening resource for academics, engineers, faculty, and students and all those interested in the amazing world of photonic sensors.
