Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a high-sensitivity optical microfluidic resonance sensing device and method, in particular to an enhanced optical microfluidic sensing device and method in which the inner surface of a microtube is coated with a high refractive index medium layer. Background technique
[0002] Label-free microfluidic biosensors based on optical refractive index detection can directly measure molecular interactions, avoiding the need for special fluorescent markers, complicated labeling, weakened biological activity due to labeling, and interference with the reaction itself. and other adverse effects, it has broad application prospects in life sciences, medical research and other fields.
[0003] The optical microresonator uses total reflection to completely confine the light in the microcavity, forming a standing wave to generate a whispering gallery resonance mode (Whisper Gallery Mode, WGM). Because of total reflection, the leakage loss is ve...
