Towards integrated devices for computer screen photo-assisted multi-parameter sensing Original Research Article

The computer screen photo-assisted technique (CSPT) utilizes consumer electronic devices such as computer screens and web cameras for distributed chemical sensing. Key to this method is the development of small and disposable sensing assays able to aid the CSPT optical detection, and the evaluation of multiple indicators. Here we demonstrate CSPT identification of fluorescent indicators from individual 100 μm SU-8 (10) pillars covering an area of 4 mm × 4 mm with a density of 47 elements mm−2. The extraction of distinctive spectral fingerprints is aided by the exploitation of a three-band Moiré interference that enables the partial Bayer decoding of the CSPT images.
