About
Yanpei Xu is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering and advanced photonics, with a primary focus on developing precision sensing technologies for minimally invasive surgical robotics. Their most notable contribution is the design of a novel angle sensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) using Kretschmann prisms, which enables highly accurate angular measurements critical for robotic surgical instruments. By proposing a bimetallic silver-gold (Ag-Au) sensor and comparing its performance against traditional single-metal SPR sensors, Xu demonstrated significant improvements in sensitivity and stability. This work, published in 2024, has already garnered 2 citations, signaling growing interest from the surgical robotics community. Xu’s research bridges the gap between nanophotonics and clinical applications, offering a pathway to safer, more precise robotic surgeries. Their innovative approach to leveraging SPR for mechanical sensing in constrained medical environments marks a key step forward in smart surgical tool design.
