They both have the same field-effect structure based on a semiconductor, which allows spatially resolved and label-free measurement of chemical species and impedance in the form of a photocurrent signal generated by a scanning light beam. In this article, the principles and various operation modes of LAPS and SPIM, functionalisation of the sensing surface for measuring various species, LAPS-based chemical imaging and high-resolution sensors based on silicon-on-sapphire substrates are described and discussed, focusing on their technical details and prospective applications.}, language = {en} } @article{ItabashiKosakaMiyamotoetal.2013, author = {Itabashi, Akinori and Kosaka, Naoki and Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {High-speed chemical imaging system based on front-side-illuminated LAPS}, series = {Sensors and actuators B: Chemical}, volume = {182}, journal = {Sensors and actuators B: Chemical}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-3077}, doi = {10.1016/j.snb.2013.03.016}, pages = {315 -- 321}, year = {2013}, abstract = {The chemical imaging sensor is a semiconductor-based chemical sensor that can visualize the spatial distribution of specific ions on the sensing surface. The conventional chemical imaging system based on the light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS), however, required a long time to obtain a chemical image, due to the slow mechanical scan of a single light beam. For high-speed imaging, a plurality of light beams modulated at different frequencies can be employed to measure the ion concentrations simultaneously at different locations on the sensor plate by frequency division multiplex (FDM). However, the conventional measurement geometry of back-side illumination limited the bandwidth of the modulation frequency required for FDM measurement, because of the low-pass filtering characteristics of carrier diffusion in the Si substrate. In this study, a high-speed chemical imaging system based on front-side-illuminated LAPS was developed, which achieved high-speed spatiotemporal recording of pH change at a rate of 70 frames per second.}, language = {en} } @article{MiyamotoIchimuraWagneretal.2013, author = {Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Ichimura, Hiroki and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo}, title = {Chemical imaging of the concentration profile of ion diffusion in a microfluidic channel}, series = {Sensors and actuators.

The chemical images (pH maps) were collected in a Y-shaped microfluidic channel while injecting HCl and NaCl solutions into two branches. From the chemical images, it was clearly observed that the injected solutions formed laminar flows in the channel. In addition, ion diffusion across the laminar flows was observed, and the diffusion coefficient could be derived by fitting the pH profiles to the Fick's equation.}, language = {en} } @article{YoshinobuMiyamotoWagneretal.2024, author = {Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Field-effect sensors combined with the scanned light pulse technique: from artificial olfactory images to chemical imaging technologies}, series = {Chemosensors}, volume = {12}, journal = {Chemosensors}, number = {2}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {2227-9040}, doi = {10.3390/chemosensors12020020}, pages = {Artikel 20}, year = {2024}, abstract = {The artificial olfactory image was proposed by Lundstr{\"o}m et al. in 1991 as a new strategy for an electronic nose system which generated a two-dimensional mapping to be interpreted as a fingerprint of the detected gas species. The potential distribution generated by the catalytic metals integrated into a semiconductor field-effect structure was read as a photocurrent signal generated by scanning light pulses. The impact of the proposed technology spread beyond gas sensing, inspiring the development of various imaging modalities based on the light addressing of field-effect structures to obtain spatial maps of pH distribution, ions, molecules, and impedance, and these modalities have been applied in both biological and non-biological systems. These light-addressing technologies have been further developed to realize the position control of a faradaic current on the electrode surface for localized electrochemical reactions and amperometric measurements, as well as the actuation of liquids in microfluidic devices.}, language = {en} }
