Optofluidics is increasingly gaining impact in a number of different fields of research, namely biology and medicine, environmental monitoring and green energy. However, the market for optofluidic products is still in the early development phase. In this manuscript, we discuss modular platforms as a potential concept to facilitate the transfer of optofluidic sensing systems to an industrial implementation. We present microfluidic and optical networks as a basis for the interconnection of optofluidic sensor modules. Finally, we show the potential for entire optofluidic networks.
The values of ultrasonic velocity (u), density (), and viscosity () have been measured experimentally in the binary liquid mixture containing 1-butanol and hexane over the entire range of composition at different temperatures 313.15 K, 318.15 K and 323.15 K. This experimental data have been used to calculate the acoustical parameters such as adiabatic compressibility (), free length (L f ), molar volume (V m ) and acoustic impedance(z). The results have been qualitatively used to explain the molecular interactions between the components of the liquid mixture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
