Electro-optofluidics: achieving dynamic control on-chip
TL;DR: This work introduces a new platform in which the photonic device is controlled using electro-optical phase tuning, and demonstrates dynamic optical trapping control of nanoparticles by an optofluidic resonator.
Journal ArticleDOI
On-chip switching of a silicon nitride micro-ring resonator based on digital microfluidics platform.
TL;DR: The switching of a silicon nitride micro ring resonator (MRR) is demonstrated by using digital microfluidics (DMF), providing control over the effective refractive index at the vicinity of the resonator and thus facilitating the manipulation of the transmission spectrum of the MRR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid-enhanced tunable diffraction with an elastomeric grating
TL;DR: In this article, a diffraction grating was constructed by soft lithography and the diffraction angle varied from 38.8 to 34.4 degrees with an applied strain of 17.7%.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A short history of optical computing: rise, decline, and evolution
TL;DR: In this paper, a brief historical review of the development of optical computing from the early years, 60 years ago, until today is given, and the results benefit to new research topics such as nanooptics, biophotonics, or communication systems.
PDMS-based opto uidic systems
TL;DR: In this paper, several optics and fluidics elements are succesfully integrated in fully functional optouidic systems, and a compact and integrable fluidically controlled optical router (FCOR) is built using soft-lithographic techniques and made entirely of PDMS and air ensuring low cost and robustness.
