Abstract
A microfluidic sensor chip includes a body comprising a substrate and an upper cover, and the upper cover having at least one opening, at least one microfluidic channel formed on the substrate and has a supporting surface, wherein the at least one microfluidic channel communicates with the at least one opening, and a metamaterial layer coated on the supporting surface, wherein the metamaterial layer has a plurality of regions, and each region has a corresponding resonance pattern. The present disclosure further provides a measuring system for microfluidic sensor chip includes a carrying board, a plurality of the microfluidic sensor chips, a transmitter emitting a terahertz wave corresponding to the resonance pattern of one of the microfluidic sensor chips, a receiver receiving a reflected wave corresponding to the terahertz wave, and a processor receiving the reflected wave from the processor, and determining a testing sample characteristic according to the reflected wave.
