Abstract
We propose a new confocal device for flow profiling in microcapillaries. A viewfinder system is developed using a visible light microscope, allowing focusing with high precision an 830 nm Fabry-Perot laser diode on a microchannel. By means of a novel confocal approach, the Doppler shift produced by the particles of a turbid liquid moving in the focal plane can be measured in real time using the well-known self-mixing effect. The resolution of this device is characterized in function of the full width at half maximum of the Gaussian frequency peak related to the self-mixing signal in the frequency domain. Velocity measurements for flow rates from 0.2 to 1.6 mL/min are presented, and the results demonstrate that the method reduces the phase noise and the effects of the out-of-focus particles, allowing straightforward flow profiling in microchannel structures
