Abstract
This communication proposes an optical method using forward light
scattering to measure the deflection of a micropipette from a normal
contact force with a small elastic solid, and the damping coefficient
of a small fluid sample through a dynamic interaction with the
pipette. An analytical and experimental study of this sensor is
performed and described for each property. Topics covered include: 10
forward light scattering technique for determining the diameter of a
micropipette (using exact and simplified geometric interference
theories); 2) deflection measurement and analysis on the pipette-sample
system using the finite element method; and 3) equivalent damping
coefficient and resonant frequency measurement of the pipette-fluid
system and its numerical solution derived from the finite element
model. A companion of the experimental results and the analytical
results is included to provide the means for analyzing the potential of
this new method.
