Photonics for Medicine & Biology

The pharmaceutical industry discovers, develops, produces, and markets drugs or pharmaceutical drugs for use as medications to be administered to patients (or self-administered), with the aim to cure them, vaccinate them, or alleviate symptoms. Optiwave can help researchers with software perfect for bio-photonics and other applications.

These applications include:

  • Non-invasively analyzing a range of materials and substances using optical spectroscopy. Tools like OptiSystem make this easy by simulating the optical spectrum of a given material, along with support for different techniques like Raman spectroscopy.
  • Study cell morphology by using light scattering simulations on single biological cells with OptiFDTD.
  • Design photonic crystal fiber bio-chemical sensors using OptiBPM.

FAQs

How can photonics be used for medicine?
As the science of manipulating light, photonics can be applied in a variety of ways to biology and its related fields. For example, photonics are often used for diagnosing and imaging patients in non-invasive procedures involving MRIs. Photonics is also leading the charge in a new procedure that uses concentrated light rays to destroy destructive tissues and even activate drugs that are already inside the system.

Do I need to be a scientist to experiment with bio-photonics?
Not at all. Optiwave’s software is intuitive, allowing newcomers to pick up the basics and start working almost immediately. Whether you’re a student or a scientist, you’ll find everything you need for your photonics testing needs at Optiwave.
