[Illinois] ECE 416 Impedance Based Sensors II
10 Apr 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we start off with a light review of the nanopore sequencing method which is based upon having a carefully bioengineered pore that can induce different changes in charge blockages as different base pairs go through...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Lumerical Optical Simulation
10 Apr 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we looked at lumerical optical simulation. The motivation to pursue this topic is because there is now software available that allows us to conduct simulations to visualize Electromagnetic field locations, to...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Mass Transport II
26 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we look at the mass transfer coefficient of association and dissociation rates of molecules on the biosensor and off of it. Having a flow cell speeds it up, but the molecules must get through a stagnant layer to...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Optical Sensors I
06 Mar 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we begin our discussion of Optical Biosensors. We start off by showing the general properties of optical biosensors besides the SPR. Then, we shift our attention to the improvements made to the SPR Sensor's...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Optical Sensors II
27 Mar 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, there is a review of the previous lecture of SPR Sensors along with Reflection Interference Spectroscopy. We learned that as we go to longer wavelengths, the refractive index is more constant. Then, we looked at...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Optical Sensors III
27 Mar 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we finished our discussion over optical sensors. We started with discussing a photon moving between 2 mirrors with 100% efficiency, the photon gets to "sample" the media between the mirrors with no loss. This was...

[Illinois] ECE 416 SPR Sensors II
21 May 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, it is a continuation of the SPR Sensors discussed in the last one. We start off with the definition of a Surface Plasmon, which is an oscillation of electrons at the interface between a good conductor and a...

[Illinois] ECE 416 SPR Sensors III
05 Mar 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we continued the SPR Sensors discussion. We started off with the coupling condition being determined by the refractive index. This means that light now goes through a protein. In the experimental results, it shows...
