In this paper, we present an optoelectronic system-on-glass (SoG), suitable for detection of fluorescent molecule. It integrates, on the same glass substrate, an array of amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) photosensors and a thin film interferential filter. The system can be directly coupled with another glass substrate hosting a polydimethylsiloxane based microfluidic network where the fluorescent phenomena occur. The compatibility of the different technological steps to attain on the same glass substrate the photosensors and the filter determined the sequence, the selection of materials and the deposition parameters of the whole process. The electro-optical characterization of the photodiode, performed after the filter deposition, demonstrated the efficacy of the filter in reducing the excitation light. The system has been successfully tested using the ruthenium complex [Ru(phen)2(dppz)]2+, a fluorescent dye which works as DNA intercalating molecule. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.

Abstract
In this paper, we present an optoelectronic system-on-glass (SoG), suitable for detection of fluorescent molecule. It integrates, on the same glass substrate, an array of amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) photosensors and a thin film interferential filter. The system can be directly coupled with another glass substrate hosting a polydimethylsiloxane based microfluidic network where the fluorescent phenomena occur. The compatibility of the different technological steps to attain on the same glass substrate the photosensors and the filter determined the sequence, the selection of materials and the deposition parameters of the whole process. The electro-optical characterization of the photodiode, performed after the filter deposition, demonstrated the efficacy of the filter in reducing the excitation light. The system has been successfully tested using the ruthenium complex [Ru(phen)2(dppz)]2+, a fluorescent dye which works as DNA intercalating molecule. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
