Abstract: A self-referencing localized plasmon resonance sensing device and a system thereof are disclosed. The reference optical waveguide element is modified with a noble metal nanoparticle layer. The sensing optical waveguide element is modified with a noble metal nanoparticle layer, which is further modified with a recognition unit. The incident light is guided into the reference and the sensing optical waveguide elements to respectively generate localized plasmon resonance sensor signals. The reference and the sensing optical waveguide elements respectively have a calibration slope. The processor utilizes the calibration slopes to regulate the second difference generated by detecting with the sensing optical waveguide element. The processor utilizes a difference between the first difference, which is generated by detecting with the reference optical waveguide element, and the regulated second difference to obtain a sensor response.

Abstract: A reflection-based tubular waveguide particle plasmon resonance sensing system and a sensing device thereof are provided. The sensing device includes a hollow tubular waveguide element having wall, a reflection layer disposed on one end of the wall (distal end), and a noble metal nanoparticle layer distributed on the surface of the wall. An incident light enters the wall through another end of the tubular waveguide element (proximal end) and being total internal reflected many times along the wall, then is reflected by the reflection layer and being total internal reflected many times along the wall again, and finally, the incident light exits the proximal end. Wherein, when the sample contacts the noble metal nanoparticle layer of the tubular waveguide element, the particle plasmon resonance condition is altered and hence the signal intensity of the light exiting the tubular waveguide element changes.

Abstract: A micro-fluidic detector applied for detecting analytes in a fluid sample is disclosed. The micro-fluidic detector comprises a mixing area, a flow area and at least one detection module. The mixing area has a conductive top plate and a plurality of first electrodes for mixing a first fluid and a second fluid so as to form the fluid sample. The flow area has two second electrodes, positioned side by side, for driving the fluid sample to flow. The detection module is used for detecting analytes in the fluid sample flowing in the flow area. The mixing area uniformly mixes the first fluid and the second fluid via an electric field generated by applying a voltage potential, with respect to the conductive top plate, to one by one of the first electrodes in the mixing area. The flow area drives the fluid sample via an electric field generated by the second electrodes.
