3D fluidic lens shaping--a multiconvex hydrodynamically adjustable optofluidic microlens.
Novel optical techniques for sensitive and reproducible fluorescence single cell analysis utilizing setups without single photon counting units are attractive for enhanced low-cost cell parameter screening. In this contribution we present the first microfluidic planar device to form an optofluidic adjustable convex lens with three-dimensional light focusing ability to improve optical sensor sys...
متن کاملHydrodynamically tunable optofluidic cylindrical microlens.
In this work, we report the design, fabrication, and characterization of a tunable optofluidic microlens that focuses light within a microfluidic device. The microlens is generated by the interface of two co-injected miscible fluids of different refractive indices, a 5 M CaCl(2) solution (n(D) = 1.445) and deionized (DI) water (n(D) = 1.335). When the liquids flow through a 90-degree curve in a...
متن کاملOptofluidic Elements for On-Chip Sample Analysis
The benefits of the integration of novel optofluidic elements, e.g., fluidic lenses and liquid-core / liquid-cladding (L2) waveguides, for on-chip optical sample analysis are discussed. Using properly designed microfluidic channels, pre-calculated flow rate ratios and transparent fluids with different refractive indices but similar viscosity novel fluidic optical elements can be created. In thi...
متن کاملOptofluidic lab-on-a-chip for rapid algae population screening
The rapid identification of algae species is not only of practical importance when monitoring unwanted adverse effects such as eutrophication, but also when assessing the water quality of watersheds. Here, we demonstrate a lab-on-a-chip that functions as a compact robust tool for the fast screening, real-time monitoring, and initial classification of algae. The water-algae sample, flowing in a ...
متن کاملOptofluidic fabrication for 3D-shaped particles
Complex three-dimensional (3D)-shaped particles could play unique roles in biotechnology, structural mechanics and self-assembly. Current methods of fabricating 3D-shaped particles such as 3D printing, injection moulding or photolithography are limited because of low-resolution, low-throughput or complicated/expensive procedures. Here, we present a novel method called optofluidic fabrication fo...
