Ultra-low-light CMOS biosensor helps tackle infectious diseases

Abstract

This article consists of a collection of slides from the author's conference presentation. Summary: Ultra-low-light CMOS biosensor enables compact and low-cost instrumentation for point-of-care molecular diagnostics. Future plan: 1. Further miniaturization of opto system - Smaller camera system for mobile integration - Direct coating and patterning of thin film filters on chip to achieve truly single chip multi-channel fluorescent imaging; 2. Create high speed variation of the chip - Targeting cell sorting and cancer screening application; 3. Further refinement of integrated opto-thermal-fluidic system platform - For handheld sample-to-answer MDx system.
