New photonic sensor opens the door to high-speed biodetection

Monday, June 6, 2016 - 14:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have developed a new technique for extremely high speed photonic sensing of the mechanical properties of freely flowing particles using an opto-mechano-fluidic resonator. This work presents a new approach to perform resonantly enhanced optical sensing of freely flowing particles through the action of long-range phonons that extend between solid and fluid phases of the sensor and sample.
