Low-loss integrated optical sensors based on hollow-core ARROW waveguide
Here we present an analysis of a fully planar optical sensor based on ARROW waveguides. We consider a device geometry that consists of two intersecting ARROW waveguides, one with solid and one with li...
Fiber Bragg grating sensor monitoring with thermally tuned Fabry-Perot cavity integrated in an all-silicon rib waveguide
Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) sensors are a very promising solution for strain and/or temperature monitoring in hostile or hazardous environments. In particular, their typical immunity to EMI and the abs...

Opticalsensing, and the integration of sensors and electronics into Sensoron a Chip and Sensor on a Package systems arean approach to the creation of miniaturized, portable, customizable, lowcost sensor systems for rapid health diagnostics, medical research, environmentalmonitoring, and security monitoring. To integrate optical sensing systems thatare autonomous, it is essential to integrate the sensor, lightsource, and light detection into a single substrate or chip.The integration of this optical system with signal control andprocessing electronics enable discrimination with individually customized sensors in sensorarrays, and high sensitivity levels. Thin film optoelectronic active deviceintegration with planar optical passive devices is a heterogeneous integrationmethod for fabricating planar lightwave integrated circuits at the chiplevel and planar lightwave integrated systems at the substrate andpackage level.
