Abstract
Integrating Photonic-Integrated Circuits (PICs) into microfluidic devices for diagnostics faces several challenges such as handling small PICs, ensuring interface access, managing temperature and UV sensitive coatings, and maintaining bubble-free sample transfer. CSEM offers unique services merg-ing cleanroom packaging, microfluidic design, and prototyping, aiding PIC and diagnostics industry partners. Collaborations with different partners have led to tailored PIC integration solutions for sepsis detection, bioreactor contamination detection, food safety testing, and extracellular vesicle detection.
