Examples of embedded & microfluidic-based sensors

  • Sensors are the scientific and technological extension of human senses and enormously expand human capabilities. Despite the fact that scientific and technological advances are usually seen in a positive light, the name of this conference, Sensors for Good, put me in a bit of a trouble, because in general science does not operate in ethical categories, but instead it just tells how far from the truth one is. In this respect, sensors help us in recognizing states and events beyond our immediate reach. Fortunately, sensors are used for many applications, such as environmental monitoring, food control, and alike, which unequivocally benefit society. I will focus on a particular type of sensors, those that rely on microfluidics for operation and which are typically realized in lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices. In this domain, where at least one of the dimensions through which a fluid flows is submillimetric, our natural senses fail, because the phenomena are too small to be detected either bySensors are the scientific and technological extension of human senses and enormously expand human capabilities.

In this domain, where at least one of the dimensions through which a fluid flows is submillimetric, our natural senses fail, because the phenomena are too small to be detected either by eye, smell, touch, and even the common sense explanation that we learn for many years in school is not applicable, because the phenomena are dominated by different parameters. To give one simple example, in general the direction of flow in microfluidic channels does not depend on the up-down direction of the channel, because gravitational force or the weight of the fluid is negligible compared to the viscous forces present on the chip. This presentation consists of three parts: initially, two sensors produced in our lab are presented, followed by a simulation oriented discussion on microfluidics and biosensors, and finally a project in progress that we are involved in is presented, concluding with a list of open issues raised during the presentation.zeige mehrzeige weniger
