We developed a microwave glucose sensor based on the modified first-order Hilbert curve design and measured glucose concentration in aqueous solutions by using a real-time microwave near-field electromagnetic interaction technique. We observed S transmission parameters of the sensor at resonant frequencies depend on the glucose concentration. We could determine the glucose concentration in the 0-250 mg/dL concentration range at an operating frequency of near 6 GHz.

We have developed an electromagnetic microwave cavity sensor based on the resonant frequency shift for real time measurement of the glycemia in pig blood. We could determine the concentration of d-glucose in pig blood in the range of 150-550mg/dl at the resonance frequency near 4.75GHz with a bandwidth of 300MHz.

We have developed an electromagnetic resonant spiral sensor and have measured the glycemia in pig blood and the concentration of D-glucose in aqueous solution by using a real-time electromagnetic interaction phenomenon between the microwave sensor and the liquid. We could determine the concentration of glucose with a minimal resolution of 5 mg/dl in the 100-600 mg/dl concentration range at operating frequencies of about 7.65 GHz (for the glucose aqueous solution) and 7.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers used a near-field scanning microwave microscope (NSMM) to study the photovoltaic effect in silicon solar cells by measuring the microwave reflection coefficient around 4GHz.
  • They observed changes in photoconductivity at heterojunction interfaces in the solar cells, which varied with light intensity and wavelength.
  • The study allowed for direct imaging of these changes in photoconductivity by analyzing the reflection coefficient S(11) from the NSMM measurements.

A near-field scanning microwave microscope (NSMM) system was used for the investigation of magnetic properties of a hard disk (HD) under an external magnetic field. To demonstrate local microwave characterization of magnetic domains by NSMM, we scanned the HD surface by measuring the microwave reflection coefficient S(11) of the NSMM at an operating frequency near 4.4GHz.
