School of Physics Seminar Programme 2014-2015
AM108 (Arts Millennium Building)
Thursday, December 11th at 11:00
Biophotonics at the Center for
Lasers and Application IPEN
University of Sao Paulo
Research on Nanophotonics and
Biophotonics at the Physics
Department, UFPE, Recife, Brazil
Prof. Denise Zezell will discuss the
development of new treatment and
diagnosis methods based on optical
techniques, such as:
- Caries and erosion prevention with
lasers
- Tissue characterization and tumour
diagnosis using micro-FTIR and OCT
- femtosecond lasers as a adjuvant
treatment of burned skin.
Prof. Anderson Gomes will describe his
group’s recent research on
nanophotonics, particularly random
lasers and nonlinear optics
in nanostructured materials, as well
as on biophotonics, with emphasis on
optical coherence tomography in
dentistry.
