Abstract :
This report presents a succession of theoretical and experimental work on sensors using the LbL technique to produce spectroscopic devices on optical fibers and micro/nano carriers using fluorescence and surface plasmon resonance interactions as specific biosensors. Examples of engineering opto-chemical transducers for in vitro, in vivo, and intracellular biochemical analysis are given to demonstrate the versatility of the process.
