Label-Free Biosensor Based Upon Replica-Molded Vertically Emitting Distributed Feedback Laser

Abstract

dc:description

The DFB laser sensor represents a departure from conventional passive resonant sensors insofar as the device actively generates its own narrowband high-intensity output without stringent requirements on the coupling alignments resulting in a simple, robust illumination and detection configuration. The DFB laser sensor structures that are fabricated upon plastic substrate in an inexpensive replica molding process render this sensor of value for applications in life science research, diagnostic testing, and environmental monitoring.
