The main objective of this project is the research and development of a fully integrated terahertz (THz) microfluidic sensor platform based on novel sensing architectures for versatile functionalities and accurate measurement of a material under test (MUT). The THz sensor platform will be realized through the combination of highly integrated THz microfluidic sensors with complex vector network analyzer (VNA) frontends in a state-of-the-art SiGe BiCMOS technology. The newly proposed architecture exhibits full 2-port network analyzing functionality in dual-frequency bands (WR3:220-325 GHz and WR2:325-500 GHz) with variable operating mode (heterodyne and homodyne/interferometric) in a system-on-chip (SoC) for the accurate sensing and characterization of trapped cells in microfluidic channels. The demonstration of such a low-cost mass-producible solution represents a breakthrough in the applicability of electromagnetic high-frequency biosensors.

该项目的主要目的是基于用于多功能功能的新型传感体系结构的全面整合的Terahertz（THZ）微流体传感器平台的研究和开发。 THZ传感器平台将通过在最先进的SIGE BICMOS技术中的高度集成的THZ微流体传感器与复杂的矢量网络分析仪（VNA）前端结合来实现。新提出的体系结构在双频频段（WR3：220-325 GHz和WR2：325-500 GHz）中展示了完整的2端口网络分析功能，具有可变操作模式（Heterodyne and jethrodyne and Homydroden and Homodyne/Interfertonicric） （SOC）用于微流体通道中捕获的细胞的准确感测和表征。这样的低成本质量可实用溶液的演示代表了电磁高频生物传感器的适用性的突破。
