Optical particle sorting on an optofluidic chip.
We report size-based sorting of micro- and sub-micron particles using optical forces on a planar optofluidic chip. Two different combinations of fluid flow and optical beam directions in liquid-core waveguides are demonstrated. These methods allow for tunability of size selection and sorting with efficiencies as high as 100%. Very good agreement between experimental results and calculated parti...
متن کاملIntegration of optical components on-chip for scattering and fluorescence detection in an optofluidic device
An optofluidic device is demonstrated with photonic components integrated onto the chip for use in fluorescence and scatter detection and counting applications. The device is fabricated by integrating the optical and fluidic components in a single functional layer. Optical excitation on-chip is accomplished via a waveguide integrated with a system of lenses that reforms the geometry of the beam...
متن کاملOn-chip tunable optofluidic dye laser
We demonstrate a chip-scale tunable optofluidic dye laser with Au-coated fibers as microcavity. The chip is fabricated by soft lithography. When the active region is pumped, a relatively low threshold of 6.7 μJ∕mm2 is realized with multimode emission due to good confinement of the cavity mirrors, long active region, as well as total reflectivity. It is easy to tune the lasing emission wavelengt...
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 ring resonator switch for optical particle transport.
In this work, we demonstrate an optofluidic switch using a microring resonator architecture to direct particles trapped in the evanescent field of a solid-core waveguide. When excited at the resonant wavelength, light inserted into the bus waveguide becomes amplified within the ring structure. The resulting high optical intensities in the evanescent field of the ring generate a gradient force t...
