Slow-light enhanced optical detection in liquid-infiltrated photonic crystals
, 2007 Slow-light enhanced optical detection in liquid-infiltrated photonic crystals is theoretically studied. Using a scattering-matrix approach and the Wigner-Smith delay time concept, we show that optical absorbance benefits both from slow-light phenomena as

Nanoscale optofluidic sensor arrays
Optics Express, 2008 In this paper we introduce Nanoscale Optofluidic Sensor Arrays (NOSAs), which are an optofluidic architecture for performing highly parallel, label free detection of biomolecular interactions in aqueous environments. The architecture is based on the use of arrays of 1D photonic crystal resonators which are evanescently coupled to a single bus waveguide.

Optofluidic Approaches for Enhanced Microsensor Performances
Sensors, 2014 Optofluidics is a relatively young research field able to create a tight synergy between optics and micro/nano-fluidics. The high level of integration between fluidic and optical elements achievable by means of optofluidic approaches makes it possible to

Distinctive Optofluidic Parallel Waveguides
Procedia Engineering, 2014 AbstractNovel lightwave propagation and bending can be realized in optofluidics by designing the refractive index profile in the microchannel through diffusion via transformation optics. Diffusion in the microfluidic channel is controllable, tunable and reconfigurable, realizing sophisticated bidirectional gradient-index profile for light manipulation.

Level-crossing and modal structure in microdroplet resonators
, 2016 We fabricate a liquid-core liquid-clad microcavity that is coupled to a standard tapered fiber, and then experimentally map the whispering-gallery modes of this droplet resonator.

Spatial Encoding with Amplitude Modulation in Serial Flow Cytometry
SensorsSerial flow cytometry was recently introduced as a method that can estimate measurement uncertainty (i.e., imprecision, the coefficient of variation of repeated measurements of individual particles) independent from population characteristics ...

Experimental evidence for Abraham pressure of light
New Journal of Physics, 2015 The question of how much momentum light carries in media has been debated for over a century. Two rivalling theories, one from 1908 by Hermann Minkowski and the other from 1909 by Max Abraham, predict the exact opposite when light enters an optical ...
