Abstract
We report a polymer organic light-emitting diode (PLED) excitation source for lab-on-microchip fluorescence analysis. A PDY-132 thin-film green PLED with an active area of 1 mm 2 was used as the excitation source. The excitation light of the PLED was used to illuminate a microfluidic device containing 150 μl of Sulforhodamine 101 (SRh101) dye dissolved in ethanol. Fluorescence signals of SRh101 (peak emission wavelength of 566 nm) dye is measured in a microfluidic device with the emission signal detected by a spectrometer. The measurements suggest that an integrated microfluidic device with a PLED excitation source can be fabricated to realize a compact and economical lab-on-microchip for point-of-care fluorescence assays.
