Research into the Use of Optofluidics to Manipulate Light and LiquidWednesday, 13 November 2013 at 09:15  Add to Calendar ▼2013-11-12 08:00:002013-11-12 09:00:00Europe/LondonWhat's Matter of Optofluidics between Light and LiquidLab-on-a-Chip Asia in SingaporeSingaporeSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.comThere is significant research in the field of manipulation and sorting of small size particles and molecules with dimensions of tens to hundreds of nanometers in a microfluidic chip. Opto-fluidic-force aims to manipulate light and fluid at micro- and nano-scale and exploit their interaction to create highly versatile devices that have significant scientific interests in many areas. The novelties of the integrated opto-fluidic-force are two-fold. First, fluids can be used to carry substances for analysis in highly sensitive optical micro-devices. Second, fluids can also be exploited to control light, making them tunable, reconfigurable and adaptive. It is a new breakthrough research area that provides new solutions and opportunities for a wide range of traditional micro-/nano-particle and molecule sorting, manipulation and detection by using opto-fluidic-force manipulation. Also, this new innovation allows scientists and researchers to tackle many classical problems with new tools and new research ideas. In this talk, the state-of-the-art of opto-fluidic-force research is reviewed with breakthrough innovations in nano-particle and molecule sorting, manipulation and detection etc. and may lead to new applications in a single molecule sorting, maipulation and imaging.
