Abstract :
Photonic crystal reflectance filters are co-fabricated/integrated with microfluidic channels that enable selective tuning of resonant reflectance spectra on flexible, transparent plastic substrates. Label-free biodetection within the fluid network is demonstrated as an exemplary application.
