摘要:
An optical sensing device and associated apparatus are configured for multiplexed detection of specific analytes in fluid samples. The device has a wavelength-tunable grating-coupler configuration in which a grating is disposed on a surface of a waveguide. Different regions of the grating may be functionalized with different receptors, and may form binding-specific sensors and reference sensors. The receptors are exposed to a fluid sample utilizing a fluidic structure mounted to the device. The device utilizes evanescent waves to sense analytes bound to the waveguide surface. The evanescent wave is sensitive to changes in refractive index at (or near) the waveguide surface. Changes in refractive index occur proportionally to the mass of the bound analyte. The apparatus utilizes a tunable light source to implement swept wavelength interrogation while the input beam is held at a fixed coupling angle relative to the waveguide and grating.

A detector array and method for making the detector array. The array includes a substrate including a plurality of trenches formed therein, and includes a plurality of collectors electrically isolated from each other, formed on the walls of the trenches, and configured to collect charge particles incident on respective ones of the collectors and to output from said collectors signals indicative of charged particle collection. The array includes a plurality of readout circuits disposed on a side of the substrate opposite openings to the collectors. The readout circuits are configured to read charge collection signals from respective ones of the plurality of collectors.
