An optical cavity-based biosensor (OCB) has been developed for point-of-care (POC) applications. This label-free biosensor employs low-cost components and simple fabrication processes to lower the overall cost while achieving high sensitivity using a differential detection method. To experimentally demonstrate its limit of detection (LOD), we conducted biosensing experiments with streptavidin and C-reactive protein (CRP). The optical cavity structure was optimized further for better sensitivity and easier fluid control. We utilized the polymer swelling property to fine-tune the optical cavity width, which significantly improved the success rate to produce measurable samples. Four different concentrations of streptavidin were tested in triplicate, and the LOD of the OCB was determined to be 1.35 nM. The OCB also successfully detected three different concentrations of human CRP using biotinylated CRP antibody. The LOD for CRP detection was 377 pM. All measurements were done using a small sample volume of 15 µL within 30 min. By reducing the sensing area, improving the functionalization and passivation processes, and increasing the sample volume, the LOD of the OCB are estimated to be reduced further to the femto-molar range. Overall, the demonstrated capability of the OCB in the present work shows great potential to be used as a promising POC biosensor.

The laser additive manufacturing technology is a laser assisted direct metal manufacturing process. This process offers the ability to make a metal component directly from CAD drawings. The manufacturing equipment consists of some components. Among them, the laser transmission component plays an important role in the whole fabricating process. It provides the energy source to melt the metal powder, so it is necessary to develop the laser transmission technology. This technology is achieved primarily by laser generator system and optical path transmission system. The related structure design and function implementation prove that the laser transmission technology can generate desirable laser power at precise assigned position, and complete the manufacturing process with flying colors.

The collimator has an extensive application as an experiment equipment that can provide an infinity goal in the instrument alignment and testing.This paper provides a new type of collimator with image stabilization function in consideration of human disturbance factors, including environment micro-vibration and so on. Liquid surface which appears natural level under gravity imaging optical path of collimator can emerge through liquid refraction and reflex later. And we should make use of this phenomenon. Mathematical modeling and analysis on the principle of dynamic imaging of the liquid wedge have been made to design several optical principle charts of the collimator with image stabilization function.One of the image stabilization optical principle structure styles has been designed based on its mechanical structure.An experiment prototype is produced and is made more practical.
