WinPhoS Research Highlights from CLEO 2026

We are pleased to highlight the participation of the WinPhoS researchers at CLEO 2026, held in Charlotte, NC, USA.

Dr. Dimitris Bellas presented his work entitled “Slow-Light-Enhanced Plasmo-Photonic Refractive Index Sensor for Record-High Sensitivity Performance”, while Mrs. Lamprini Damakoudi presented “Group-Index Engineered Bimodal Plasmo-Photonic Interferometric Sensor for Enhanced Sensitivity”. Both contributions come from the WinPhoS Research Group.

These works were supported by the European H2020 project AMBROSIA.

We sincerely thank both researchers for their dedication and excellent work.
