Abstract:
1. A device comprising: a collimated light source operable to generate a collimated light source beam, the collimated light source beam comprising a beam cross-section; at least one body defining a first channel in a first plane, the first channel comprising a first channel cross-section, the first channel being oriented to receive the collimated light source beam such that the beam cross-section completely overlaps the first channel cross-section, wherein said body defines a second channel in a second plane orthogonal to the first plane and communicating with said first channel, wherein said body defines a third channel in a third plane orthogonal to the first plane and communicating with said first channel; and a fluid input reservoir communicating with the second channel, wherein the collimated light source beam is oriented to enter a cross-section of the third channel, then to pass through the first channel, and then to enter a cross-section of the second channel, and the second plane and third plane defining separate plates or bodies.
