We present an approach to functionalise optical microring resonators as hybridisation platforms, using tip-mould reactive microcontact printing process. Derived from reactive microcontact printing using an ad hoc mould of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), the method functionalises single microring resonator with a target-specific capture agent. The authors report the functionalisation of silicon nitride (SiN) 200 μm diameter microring resonator with single-strand DNA and the hybridisation detection of 100 nM target analyte, while concurrently monitoring not-functionalised microring as a control sensor. Results show that the functionalisation approach permits to address single microring resonators with mutual distance lower than 100 μm with high precision, enabling a better integration of multiple spotting zones on the chip concerning traditional functionalisation procedures.

Abstract
We present an approach to functionalise optical microring resonators as hybridisation platforms, using tip-mould reactive microcontact printing process. Derived from reactive microcontact printing using an ad hoc mould of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), the method functionalises single microring resonator with a target-specific capture agent. The authors report the functionalisation of silicon nitride (SiN) 200 μm diameter microring resonator with single-strand DNA and the hybridisation detection of 100 nM target analyte, while concurrently monitoring not-functionalised microring as a control sensor. Results show that the functionalisation approach permits to address single microring resonators with mutual distance lower than 100 μm with high precision, enabling a better integration of multiple spotting zones on the chip concerning traditional functionalisation procedures.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
