Item Open Access CDs have fingerprints too(Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2009) Hammouri G.; Dana, Aykutlu; Sunar, B.We introduce a new technique for extracting unique fingerprints from identical CDs. The proposed technique takes advantage of manufacturing variability found in the length of the CD lands and pits. Although the variability measured is on the order of 20 nm, the technique does not require the use of microscopes or any advanced equipment. Instead, we show that the electrical signal produced by the photodetector inside the CD reader is sufficient to measure the desired variability. We investigate the new technique by analyzing data collected from 100 identical CDs and show how to extract a unique fingerprint for each CD. Furthermore, we introduce a technique for utilizing fuzzy extractors over the Lee metric without much change to the standard code offset construction. Finally, we identify specific parameters and a code construction to realize the proposed fuzzy extractor and convert the derived fingerprints into 128-bit cryptographic keys. © 2009 Springer.Item Open Access A smartphone based surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi) platform for on-site biodetection(Elsevier, 2017) Guner, H.; Ozgur, E.; Kokturk, G.; Celik, M.; Esen, E.; Topal, A. E.; Ayas, S.; Uludag, Y.; Elbuken, C.; Dana, A.We demonstrate a surface plasmon resonance imaging platform integrated with a smartphone to be used in the field with high-throughput biodetection. Inexpensive and disposable SPR substrates are produced by metal coating of commercial Blu-ray discs. A compact imaging apparatus is fabricated using a 3D printer which allows taking SPR measurements from more than 20.000 individual pixels. Real-time bulk refractive index change measurements yield noise equivalent refractive index changes as low as 4.12 × 10−5 RIU which is comparable with the detection performance of commercial instruments. As a demonstration of a biological assay, we have shown capture of mouse IgG antibodies by immobilized layer of rabbit anti-mouse (RAM) IgG antibody with nanomolar level limit of detection. Our approach in miniaturization of SPR biosensing in a cost-effective manner could enable realization of portable SPR measurement systems and kits for point-of-care applications.
