An Er:Yb:LuSiO microchip laser was constructed by placing a 1.2 mm thick, Y-cut Er:Yb:LuSiO microchip between two 1.2 mm thick sapphire crystals, in which input and output mirrors were directly deposited onto one face of each crystal. End-pumped by a continuous-wave 975.4 nm diode laser, a 1564 nm multi-longitudinal-mode laser with a maximum output power of 940 mW and slope efficiency of 20% was realized at an absorbed pump power of 5.5 W when the transmission of output mirror was 2.2%. When the transmission of the output mirror was increased to 6%, a 1537 nm single-longitudinal-mode laser with a maximum output power of 440 mW and slope efficiency of 12% was realized at an absorbed pump power of 4.3 W. The results indicate that the Er:Yb:LuSiO crystal is a promising microchip gain medium to realize a single-longitudinal-mode laser.

Despite major advances in the field of actuator technology for microsystems, miniaturized microfluidic actuation systems for mobile devices are still not common in the market. We present a micropump concept and an associated mass flow sensor design, which, in combination, have the potential to form the basis for an integrated microfluidic development platform for microfluidic systems in general and microdosing systems in particular. The micropump combines the use of active valves with an electrostatic drive principle for the pump membrane and the valves, respectively.

'Organ-on-a-chip' technology is a promising and rapidly evolving model in biological research. This innovative microfluidic cell culture device was created using a microchip with continuously perfused chambers, populated by living cells arranged to replicate physiological processes at the tissue and organ levels. By consolidating multicellular structures, tissue-tissue interfaces, and physicochemical microenvironments, these microchips can replicate key organ functions.

Glutathione (GSH) plays a vital role in the regulation of intracellular functions which alterations in physiological glutathione levels are associated to various diseases. Molecular bioimaging is a sensitive method for GSH detection, but challenges persist in the development of fluorescent probes, mainly concerning long-term tracking of intracellular GSH concentration because of aggregation of molecular probes and their washout in cells. Engineered nanomaterials have shown great promise for increasing the disease diagnosis accuracy.
