The Sensitivity of Composite Bimodal Waveguide SU-8

Abstract: This paper presents the results of measurements of the refractive index and thickness of the waveguide layer SU-8. The mode sensitivity has been calculated as a function of the thickness in a bimodal structure. The dierential interference was analyzed concerning modes of the same types TE0TE1 and TM0TM1 and modes of the same order (TE0TM0, TE1TM1). The thickness of the layer was determined when the interferometer is most sensitive to changes of the refractive index. It has been proved that the sensitivity of t… Show more

“…Particularly noteworthy are differential interferometers using a two-mode optical waveguide [2][3][4][5], which in some cases provide greater sensitivity than single-mode waveguides [6]. They operate utilizing the interference of two modes of different orders in the exemplary types of structures: spiral-type waveguides [7], silicon nanowire ridge waveguides (SNRW) [8], composite bimodal waveguides [9]. Modes propagating in a waveguide interfere with each other and the light intensity distribution at the output of the structure depends on the phase difference between the modes.…”
