- Abstract
- This paper describes the implementation of a low-cost technology platform for fluorescence-based optochemical sensors made up of arrays of multimode waveguides and coupling structures integrated onto a flexible substrate. Such aconfiguration is ideal for multi-analyte detection owing to a possibility of future integration of different dyes in each waveguides. The presence of light sources, fluorescent sensing elements and photodetectors in a foil platform makes it a compact optochemical sensor, which has wide-range of applications in medical, biochemical, and environmentaldiagnostics. Flexible lightguides fabricated using soft-lithography based replication techniques, are used in combination with 45° micromirror coupling structures, having a loss of 0.5dB. Fluorescent dyes are incorporated with the lightguides enabling a detection of shift in fluorescence-peaks in contact with gases, which are read-out at the detection. Initial measurements yielded promising results of the waveguides mixed with fluorescent dyes showing response to toluene.
