Professor Anders Kristensen received his PhD in Physics from the Niels Bohr Institute fAPG, University of Copenhagen in 1994. He joined DTU Nanotech in 2001, where he does research on optofluidics - the integration of micro-/nano- photonics and -fluidics for novel sensing and actuation schemes.
His current research include photonic crystal sensor surfaces for refractometric imaging, opto-thermal actuation and laser manipulation, nanoplasmonics for light confinement and integrated delivery og light at the nanoscale, and plasmonic color metasurfaces for decoration and laser nano-lithography. This research is supported by polymer micro-fabrication technology research and development, where he has pioneered nano imprint lithography in Denmark.
Professor Kristensen has headed national and european research programmes on advancing polymer nano- and micro-fabrication technology for industrial production: PolyNano (DK) - Strategic Research Center in Precision and Nanoscale Mass Replication of Biochips, PLAST4FUTURE (EC) - Injection moulding production technology for multi-functional nano-structured plastic components enabled by Nano Imprint Lithography.
