“…However, access to providers of dense integration of high-speed The circuit is designed so that light is coupled in and out via the same grating coupler [28] and it is also required to be compact in order to fit on the facet of a standard single-mode optical fiber. Normally, the user is provided with standard low cost packaging, mainly with the purpose of simplifying the characterization process, in most cases done by the foundry users which sometimes do not have a complex photonic laboratory.…”

Using photons to sense instead of electrons has many advantages, which is why photonic sensing is slowly maturing from a niche into a fully-fledged mature technology. In the O&G business, photonic sensing has gained ground and in some cases is even becoming the standard. Most of these systems are fiber or free space optics based, though. So far, this has been sufficient, but future demands for high information rate at a low cost will make it very difficult for these systems to be competitive on their own. Analogous to the electronics industry, there is also a drive in the fields of photonics for integration of functionality on integrated circuits, the so-called Photonic Integrated Circuits (PIC).In this paper we will present an overview of a novel sensing technology, based on Application Specific Photonic Integrated Circuits (ASPIC) that is suitable and in some cases mature to be deployed for O&G exploration. We will touch on existing and future technologies and also explain the Multi Project Wafer model that is revolutionizing commercial ASPIC development.

Abstract--In recent years portable, sensitive and cheap sensors have gained interest in fields such as medical diagnostics, food quality control, environmental monitoring and drug development. Especially optical sensors in silicon-on-insulator have proven to be very promising, because they have a low limit of detection, are very compact and can be made with cheap mass fabrication techniques. While a lot of progress has been made to implement such sensors in small and easy to use cartridges, many applications require a sensor probe that can perform measurements at locations that are hard to reach. We introduce a method to integrate a silicon-on-insulator photonic sensor on the facet of a standard single-mode optical fiber, and apply this method to a well-known ring resonator refractive index sensor without deteriorating its sensitivity. We thus combined the good performance of silicon-on-insulator sensors with the high mobility of optical fibers.Index Terms-Optical fiber probe sensor, ring resonator, Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI).
