OPTICAL WAVEGUIDE SENSOR, MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR OPTICAL WAVEGUIDE SENSORS AND OPTICAL WAVEGUIDE SENSOR MEASURING SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical waveguide sensor that can obtain stable detection values, a manufacturing method for such optical waveguide sensors and an optical waveguide sensor measuring system.;SOLUTION: An optical waveguide sensor is provided with a cartridge comprising an optical waveguide part, a planar part, a side part and a sensing material layer. The optical waveguide part guides light. The planar part opposes the optical waveguide part in a separated position. The side part is in contact with the optical waveguide part and the planar part, and forms a sealed space together with the optical waveguide part and the planar part. The sensing material layer is separated from the planar part in the space while being in contact with the optical waveguide part, and is varied in optical characteristics by its contact with sample liquid.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT
