Research Team Phytophotonics

The Phytophotonics group investigates the application of optical technologies in the field of plant sciences. Thus, it represents the interface between physics, plant sciences and engineering sciences. Accordingly, the research group is located at the Hannover Center for Optical Technologies (HOT).

The research activities are divided into two main areas: Optical phytomonitoring and laser-based methods for the non-contact manipulation of plant tissue.
