Biofunctionalized tilted Fiber Bragg Gratings for label-free immunosensing
Optics Express, 2008 We present a study aimed at developing a label-free optical fiber biosensor for detection and quantification of biomolecules in real-time. The biosensor based on a Tilted Fiber Bragg Grating (TFBG) transduces a binding event between the probe and target molecules into a change in the refractive index of the medium surrounding the fiber.
