| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Microchips for an ultra-small amount of solutions of pico-liter order with high sensitivity of femtomole level has been designed and developed by using near-field emitted terahertz (THz). A GaAs(110) substrate as a THz emitter on which micro channels were fabricated, was provided as an integrated THz microchip combining a THz emitter and a sample solution vessel. Metamaterial structure fabricated on the surface of GaAs brought higher sensitivity. In order to develop disposable microchips, a thin film of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with microchannels stuck on GaAs was designed. By using new microchips, the solutions of biomolecules were measured and evaluated.
