Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we studied on microsensors on physiological parameters such as temperature and viscosity for intracellular measurement. We investigated two type sensors, microcapsule sensor containing nano-sized gel-bead impregnating temperature sensitive fluorescence dye for viscosity measurement using Brownian motion and silicon nanowire sensor for temperature measurement using polarization.
Although fabrication of microcapsule sensor was succeeded, calibraton of Brownian motion with viscosity and mass production of the sensor were not succeeded.
On the other hand, silicon nanowire sensor represents strong correlationship between retardance and temperature. These results indicate the potential of silicon nanowire sensor as new temperature sensing method in micro-nano scale.
