An alternative to commonly used electrode structures can be a light-addressable electrode. Here, due to the photoelectric effect, the conducting area can be adjusted by modification of the illumination area which enables a flexible control of the electrode. In this work, titanium dioxide based light-addressable electrodes are fabricated by a sol-gel technique and a spin-coating process, to deposit a thin film on a fluorine-doped tin oxide glass. To characterize the fabricated electrodes, the thickness, and morphological structure are measured by a profilometer and a scanning electron microscope. For the electrochemical behavior, the dark current and the photocurrent are determined for various film thicknesses. For the spatial resolution behavior, the dependency of the photocurrent while changing the area of the illuminated area is studied. Furthermore, the addressing of single fluid compartments in a three-chamber system, which is added to the electrode, is demonstrated.}, language = {en} } @article{WeldenNagamineKomesuWagneretal.2021, author = {Welden, Rene and Nagamine Komesu, Cindy A. and Wagner, Patrick H. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Wagner, Torsten}, title = {Photoelectrochemical enzymatic penicillin biosensor: A proof-of-concept experiment}, series = {Electrochemical Science Advances}, volume = {2}, journal = {Electrochemical Science Advances}, number = {4}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {2698-5977}, doi = {10.1002/elsa.202100131}, pages = {1 -- 5}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors are a rather novel type of biosensors thatutilizelighttoprovideinformationaboutthecompositionofananalyte,enablinglight-controlled multi-analyte measurements.

This work represents a new flexible approach to read out light-addressable potentiometric sensors (LAPS) with the help of a digital light processing (DLP) set-up. The DLP, known well for video projectors, consists of a mirror-array MEMS device, which allows fast and flexible generation of light patterns. With the help of these light patterns, the sensor surface of the LAPS device can be addressed. The DLP approach has several advantages compared to conventional LAPS set-ups, e.g., the spot size and the shape of the light pointer can be changed easily and no mechanical movement is necessary, which reduces the size of the set-up and increases the stability and speed of the measurement. In addition, the modulation frequency and intensity of the light beam are important parameters of the LAPS set-up. Within this work, the authors will discuss two different ways of light modulation by the DLP set-up, investigate the influence of different modulation frequencies and different light intensities as well as demonstrate the scanning capabilities of the new set-up by pH mapping on the sensor surface.}, language = {en} } @article{WagnerWernerMiyamotoetal.2011, author = {Wagner, Torsten and Werner, Frederik and Miyamoto, Ko-Ichiro and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo}, title = {A high-density multi-point LAPS set-up using a VCSEL array and FPGA control}, series = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 154 (2011), H. 2}, journal = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 154 (2011), H. 2}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {1873-3077}, pages = {124 -- 128}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{WagnerWernerMiyamotoetal.2010, author = {Wagner, Torsten and Werner, Frederik and Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Ackermann, Hans-Josef and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {FPGA-based LAPS device for the flexible design of sensing sites on functional interfaces}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (A). 207 (2010), H. 4}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (A). 207 (2010), H. 4}, isbn = {1862-6300}, pages = {844 -- 849}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{WagnerWernerMiyamotoetal.2009, author = {Wagner, Torsten and Werner, Frederik and Miyamoto, K. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Yoshinobu, T.}, title = {A high-density multi-point LAPS set-up using a VCSEL array and FPGA control}, series = {Procedia Chemistry. 1 (2009), H. 1}, journal = {Procedia Chemistry. 1 (2009), H. 1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {1876-6196}, pages = {1483 -- 1486}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @article{WagnerVornholtWerneretal.2016, author = {Wagner, Torsten and Vornholt, Wolfgang and Werner, Frederik and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Miyamoto, Ko-Ichiro and Keusgen, Michael and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) combined with magnetic beads for pharmaceutical screening}, series = {Physics in medicine}, volume = {2016}, journal = {Physics in medicine}, number = {1}, issn = {2352-4510}, doi = {10.1016/j.phmed.2016.03.001}, pages = {2 -- 7}, year = {2016}, abstract = {The light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) has the unique feature to address different regions of a sensor surface without the need of complex structures. Measurements at different locations on the sensor surface can be performed in a common analyte solution, which distinctly simplifies the fluidic set-up. However, the measurement in a single analyte chamber prevents the application of different drugs or different concentrations of a drug to each measurement spot at the same time as in the case of multi-reservoir-based set-ups. In this work, the authors designed a LAPS-based set-up for cell culture screening that utilises magnetic beads loaded with the endotoxin (lipopolysaccharides, LPS), to generate a spatially distributed gradient of analyte concentration. Different external magnetic fields can be adjusted to move the magnetic beads loaded with a specific drug within the measurement cell. By recording the metabolic activities of a cell layer cultured on top of the LAPS surface, this work shows the possibility to apply different concentrations of a sample along the LAPS measurement spots within a common analyte solution.}, language = {en} }
