Integration of vertical grating couplers and microfluidic channels with silicon photonic wire biosensor arrays
Abstract
We describe a new label-free biosensor array chip developed for the real-time, simultaneous monitoring of multiple molecular binding reactions. It is composed of monolithically integrated grating couplers, microfluidic channels and spiral cavity silicon photonic wire sensors. The grating couplers use a novel design for coupling to the transverse magnetic mode of a silicon photonic wire. They contain arrays of subwavelength dimension holes, …
