    Abstract: An optical fiber sensor (100) can be used to measure pressure with high sensitivity and fine resolution. As a (108) at the end of the sensor expands or contracts, the spectrum of a beam reflected from the end of fiber shifts, producing a change linked to pressure exerted on the sensor. Novel aspects of the present inventive sensor include the direct bonding of a silica thin film diaphragm (110) to the optical fiber with localized or confined heating and a uniform thickness of the diaphragm. The resulting sensor has a diameter that matches the diameter of the optical fiber. Because the sensor is all silica, it does not from temperature-induced error. In addition, the sensor can be very sensitive because the diaphragm can be very thin; it can also make highly repeatable measurements due to its very uniform thickness.

    Abstract: An automated cell injection system and method are described, which can perform automatic, reliable, and high-throughput cell injection of foreign genetic materials, proteins, and other compounds. The system and method overcome the problems inherent in traditional manual injection that is characterized by poor reproducibility, human fatigue, and low throughput. The present invention is particularly suited for zebrafish embryo injection but can be readily extended to other biological injection applications such as mouse embryo, drosophila embryo, and C. elegans injections, capable of facilitating high-throughput genetic research at both academic and industry levels. A novel vacuum based cell-holding device is also provided.

Light from the second fiber exits the second collimator along the second path into a second collimated beam that exits the light angle deflector along a third path and is received by the third fiber.
