Abstract

Flow sensor GRIN microlens IR absorption Thermal lens effect Chemical Engineering (miscellaneous) Bioengineering
Newly developed flowing thermal lens microflow velocimeter, in which photothermally produced local refractive index change was used as a tracer of micro flow, enabled noncontact and in-situ measurement of flow inside a microchemical chip. Characteristics of the flow sensor were investigated. Copyright © 2005 by the Transducer Research Foundation, Inc.
