Publication Open Access Ammonia gas optical sensor based on lossy mode resonances(IEEE, 2023) Armas, Dayron; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenThis letter presents the fabrication and characterization of an ammonia (NH 3) gas optical sensor based on lossy mode resonances (LMRs). A chromium (III) oxide (Cr 2 O 3) thin film deposited onto a planar waveguide was used as LMR supporting coating. The obtained LMR shows a maximum attenuation wavelength or resonance wavelength centered at 673 nm. The optical properties of the coating can be modified as a function of the presence and concentration of NH 3 in the external medium. Consequently, the refractive index of the Cr 2 O 3 thin film will change, producing a red-shift of the resonance wavelength. Obtained devices were tested for different concentrations of NH 3 as well as repetitive cycles. Concentrations as low as 10 ppbv of NH 3 were detected at room temperature. Machine learning regression models were used to mitigate the cross-sensitivity of the device under temperature and humidity fluctuations.Publication Open Access Enhancement of lossy mode resonance sensing properties by the introduction of an intermediate low-refractive-index layer(Optica, 2023) Armas, Dayron; Kwietniewski, Norbert; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Burnat, Dariusz; Smietana, Mateusz; Del Villar, Ignacio; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaDevices based on the lossy mode resonance (LMR) effect have found numerous sensing applications. Herein, the enhancement of the sensing properties by the introduction of an intermediate layer between the substrate and the LMR-supporting film is discussed. Experimental results for a silicon oxide (SiO2) layer of tuned thickness between a glass slide substrate and a thin film of titanium oxide (TiO2) prove the possibility of significantly increasing the LMR depth and the figure of merit (FoM) for refractive index sensing applications, which is supported by a numerical analysis using the plane wave method for a one-dimensional multilayer waveguide. The application of the intermediate layer allows the introduction of a new, to the best of our knowledge, degree of freedom into the design of LMR-based sensors, resulting in improved performance for demanding fields such as chemical sensing or biosensing.
