Greater than 10/sup 6/ optical isolation in integrated optoelectronic fluorescence sensor

Abstract: Integrated optoelectronic sensors hold much potential for bio-medical applications. Our work focuses on the use of semiconductor lasers, photodetectors and filters to create a monolithically integrated near-infrared fluorescence sensor. Previous research has found that the close integration of these components results in large laser background levels from spontaneous emission emitted from the side of the laser and limits sensor sensitivity. This work presents an improved optical blocking structure between the … Show more

“…4) for use in deep-red to near-infrared fluorescence studies. 54,55,[60][61][62][63][64] It consisted of a light source, a wavelength filter, and a photodetector, all micromachined on a single substrate. A second module was used for the microfluidic network containing the DNA sample, formed in PDMS.…”

“…A robotic assistant for tele-medicine applications must be equipped with non-invasive bio-sensors. Over the past years, much effort has been placed on developing non-invasive measurement techniques for biomedical applications (King, 2003;He, 2005;Bachiochi, 2005;Jubran, 1999;Webster, 1997;Puentes et al, 2007;Korsunsky et al, 2005;Thrush et al, 2004;Olesberg, 2004;Macknet et al, 2007;Kraitl and Ewald, 2005;Ewald and Kraitl, 2007;Spigulis et al, 2004;Spigulis, 2005;March, 2001;Waynant and Chenault, 1998;Cho et al, 2004;Yamakoshi et al, 2007). A number of such devices are based on utilising optical techniques.…”

“…There are various optical sensing methods for continuous non-invasive measurement of other bio-data, such as haemoglobin, glucose and many other blood contents (Puentes et al, 2007;Korsunsky et al, 2005;Thrush et al, 2004;Olesberg, 2004;Macknet et al, 2007;Kraitl and Ewald, 2005;Ewald and Kraitl, 2007;Spigulis et al, 2004;Spigulis, 2005;March, 2001;Waynant and Chenault, 1998;Cho et al, 2004;Yamakoshi et al, 2007;Jaundice Meter, 2008;Yasuda et al, 2003;Singh and Chauhan, 1989). Non-invasive haemoglobin measurements have many potential advantages including the accurate and continuous monitoring of anaemia.…”
