Furthermore, we are experienced in designing optically active nanomaterials and characterising e.g. plasmonic interaction effects or surface-enhanced Raman effects (SERS) and studying optical properties of metamaterials. Operating as an open-access facility, we provide support in training and service measurements on spectroscopy and imaging equipment, as well as complementary services, such as specimen/sample preparation, flow cytometry, and spectral or image analysis. Since 2020, the NBI facility has been integrated into the Portuguese Platform of Bioimaging (PPBI). New generation imaging and spectroscopy solutions that:
