Direct Printing/Patterning Of Key Components For Biosensor Devices, Yiliang Zhou
Doctoral Dissertations
Recently, biosensor devices, especially wearable devices for monitoring human health, have attracted significant interests and meanwhile, they have a huge market. These wearable biosensor devices usually consist of several key components, including microfluidics, biosensing elements and power supply. Though advanced sensing platforms have been extensively explored, high manufacturing fee and lack of practical functions are the main reasons that most of devices and techniques are still out of reach for potential users. This dissertation focuses on fabricating these key components for biosensor devices via advanced printing/patterning techniques, such as inkjet-printing and nanoimprinting. These fabrication techniques can be potentially extended to …
