• Goal Utilize Novel Optoelectronics to Develop
  Integrated Optical Biosensors
• Traditional Sensors
• Discrete optical components (laser,
  photodetector, and filters)
• Serial architecture-slow
• Large footprint, non-portable and expensive
• Progress Design of Monolithically Integrated
  Laser, Photodetector, and Filter
• Inexpensive, portable, parallel architecture
