Polymer integrated waveguide optical biosensor by using spectral splitting effect

Abstract: Abstract:The polymer waveguide optical biosensor based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) by using spectral splitting effect is investigated. The MZI based biosensor has two unequal width sensing arms. With the different mode dispersion responses of the two-arm waveguides to the cladding refractive index change, the spectral splitting effect of the output interference spectrum is obtained, inducing a very high sensitivity. The influence of the different mode dispersions between the two-arm waveguides on … Show more

“…In general, receptors are small molecular compounds such as antibodies, enzymes, or DNA molecules, which can recognize antigen, protein, microbial and DNA, etc. Meanwhile, trace amounts of current, voltage, optical, or impedance signals [ 1 ] are read out by sensor detection devices. Up to now, the detection performance of chemical sensors or biosensors has been greatly improved due to the appliance of nanotechnology.…”
