Salomon Lab - LIght Matters
Plasmonics, hybrid materials for renewable energy, light matter interaction, aerogels, metallic nanostructures, SHG, surface chemistry, photochemistry
Current research at the Salomon lab is focused on interactions between molecules and light at the nanoscale, and real-time imaging of electrode surfaces as part of INREP
Highly Sensitive Plasmonic Sensors for Optical Detection of Water Contamination
Global consumers already make healthier choices in food consumption and drinking water quality.
Shifting to reachable optical sensing and analysis devices.
Our technology: nano-fabricated coin-sized optical sensor, based on
Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS).
Our Mission(s)
Developing coin-sized SERS devices for food/water safety.
