Abstract :
The recent development of liquid-core antiresonant reflecting optical (ARROW) waveguides for integrated optofluidic devices is reviewed. Advanced fluorescence detection techniques and single bioparticle detection on a chip are presented, and an outlook for planar integrated optofludics for novel biomedical instrumentation is given.
