Sumario: | Hybrid emission filters, comprising an interference filter and an absorption filter, exhibit high excitation light rejection performance and can act as lensless fluorescent devices. However, it has been challenging to produce them in large batches over a large area. In this study, we propose and demonstrate a method for transferring a Si substrate, on which the hybrid filter is deposited, onto an image sensor by attaching it to the sensor and removing the substrate via plasma etching. Through this method, we can transfer uniform filters onto fine micrometer-sized needle devices and millimeter-sized multisensor chips. Optical evaluation reveals that the hybrid filter emits light in the 500 to 560 nm range, close to the emission region of green fluorescent protein (GFP). Furthermore, by observing the fluorescence emission from the microbeads, a spatial resolution of 12.11 μm is calculated. In vitro experiments confirm that the fabricated device is able to discriminate GFP emission patterns from brain slices. |
