Title
A white-light source operated polymer-based micromachined Fabry-Perot chemo/biosensor
Abstract
A white-light source operated polymer-based micromachined Fabry-Perot chemo/biosensor is reported for the first time. It is a refractive-index sensitive optical sensor. The transducing signal varies upon the changes of the effective index of refraction in the sensing area, which is the Fabry-Perot cavity. This chemo/biosensor is made with PDMS and glass. Specifically, the micromachined Fabry-Perot interferometer (μFPI) and cavity is fabricated by bonding glass and the soft-lithographically patterned PDMS. Several chemicals have been detected with the prototype devices. Measurements show that at least 10ppm chemicals can be detected even without any performance optimization of the devices.
