Spotter-compatible SOI waveguide devices for biomolecular sensing - art. no. 68981B

Abstract

We demonstrate Mach-Zehnder interferometer and ring resonator evanescent field sensors fabricated on the silicon-on-insulator material platform. These devices exploit the strong evanescent field of the transverse magnetic mode of a high index contrast, submicron dimension waveguide to obtain strong interaction of the guided mode with biomolecules adsorbed to the waveguide surface. We utilize the extremely small bend radius achievable with …
