Welcome

Andreas Tittl is new extraordinary CeNS member

 

Dr. Andreas Tittl is subgroup leader for mid-infrared nanophotonics at the Chair in Hybrid Nanosystems (Prof. Maier) at LMU. He received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Stuttgart, Germany, in 2015, focusing on the development of optical sensors for the detection of gases and catalytic reactions. Afterwards, he became a Marie-Curie-funded EPFL Fellow in Prof. Altug’s lab at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland, working on mid-infrared spectroscopic biosensing. His current research targets the design and implementation of novel surface-enhanced nanophotonic approaches for understanding complex biological systems, where he has recently pioneered the use of all-dielectric metasurfaces in IR biochemical spectroscopy. Dr. Tittl has received several awards for his work, including the VDI Young Researcher Award Nanotechnology, the Young Investigator Award „Green Photonics“, and the Jeffrey Hubbell and Melody Swartz Young Bioengineer Award.
