Abstract

We report on the development of a novel piezo-MEMS-based optofluidic platform to detect the concentration of various species dissolved in a fluid. This platform employs piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducers (PMUTs) to work as a photoacoustic receiver, receiving ultrasound from fluid targets present in microfluidic channels while illuminated with a nanosecond pulsed laser. We fabricate both the PMUTs and the microfluidic channels and subsequently use them for the experiment. We also show the capability of PMUTs as a general photoacoustic receiver and demonstrate its signal-to-noise characteristics (31) and its wide fractional bandwidth (73). © 2022 SPIE.
