Publication Open Access A comprehensive review of optical fiber refractometers: toward a standard comparative criterion(Wiley, 2019) Urrutia Azcona, Aitor; Del Villar, Ignacio; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCThanks to the peculiarities of optical fiber and its ability to be combined with nanotechnology, precise and accurate measurements of the changes in optical properties (i.e., refractive index) of the medium surrounding the fiber are becoming possible with a high degree of performance. Thus, optical fiber sensors (OFSs) are increasingly finding applications in biochemistry and biomedicine. Here, all types of optical fiber refractometers are covered, and they are classified into three main groups: interferometers, grating-based structures, and resonance-based structures (the resonance is induced by coating the optical fiber sensor with a thin film). The performance of these different structures is compared by means of the most common parameters: sensitivity, full width at half minimum or maximum, figure of merit, and quality factor. The aim here is to provide a reliable and easy-to-use tool to compare the performance of the most recent developments on fiber optic refractometers.Publication Open Access Is there a frontier in sensitivity with lossy mode resonance (LMR) based refractometers?(Nature Publishing Group, 2017) Ozcariz Celaya, Aritz; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaA tin dioxide thin layer has been studied in order to improve the sensitivity of lossy mode resonances (LMR) based sensors. The effects of the thin film thickness and the polarization of light in a SnO2 coated D-shaped single mode optical fiber have been evaluated. The optimization of such parameters in the fabrication of refractometers have led to an unprecedented sensitivity of over one million nanometers per refractive index unit (RIU), which means a sensitivity below 10^(−9) RIU with a pm resolution detector. This achievement is a milestone for the development of new high sensitivity devices and opens the door to new industrial applications, such as gear oil degradation, or biomedical devices where previous devices could not provide enough sensitivity.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 D-shape optical fiber refractometer based on TM and TE lossy mode resonances(SPIE, 2014) Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Del Villar, Ignacio; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzaThe fabrication and characterization of an optical fiber refractometer based on Lossy Mode Resonances (LMR) is presented. TiO2/ poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) coatings deposited on side-polished D-shaped optical fibers are used as LMR supporting coatings. LMRs are sensitive to the external medium refractive index and D-shaped optical fibers enable the observation of TE and TM LMR polarizations. These refractometers based on TE and TM LMR showed an average sensitivity of 2737 nm/RIU and 2893 nm/RIU respectively for a surrounding medium refractive index (SMRI) range from 1.35 to 1.41.Publication Open Access Lossy mode resonance sensors based on nanocoated multimode-coreless-multimode fibre(Elsevier, 2020) Vicente Gómara, Adrián; Santano Rivero, Desiree; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Urrutia Azcona, Aitor; Del Villar, Ignacio; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, PJUPNA26In this work it is proved the ability to obtain lossy mode resonances (LMRs) in the transmission spectrum with multimode-coreless-multimode fibre optic structure coated with tin oxide on the coreless segment. The devices were characterized as a function of the surrounding medium refractive index and sensitivities of 7346.93 nm/RIU and 708.57 nm/RIU were attained for the first and the second LMR respectively. As an application proof of this technology, one of the devices was biofunctionalized and used for detecting goat anti-mouse IgG in concentrations ranging from 1 to 40 mg/L, with a limit of detection of 0.6 mg/L. This proves the ability of this simple structure to be used for biological, chemical or environmental applications.Publication Open Access Thin film coated D-shaped fiber regenerable biosensor(Optica, 2020) Santano Rivero, Desiree; Ciáurriz Gortari, Paula; Tellechea Malda, Edurne; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Socorro Leránoz, Abián Bentor; Del Villar, Ignacio; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCWe present a novel covalent functionalization of a D-shape fiber biosensor based on Lossy Mode Resonances. IgG/anti-IgG model is applied to prove the regeneration of the union and thus the re-usability of the sensor.Publication Open Access Lossy mode resonance enabling ultra-low detection limit for fibre-optic biosensors (INVITED)(Springer, 2020) Chiavaioli, Francesco; Giannetti, Ambra; Tombelli, Sara; Trono, Cosimo; Del Villar, Ignacio; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Baldini, Francesco; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, 72/2015The combination of optical fibre-based biosensors with nanotechnologies is providing the opportunity for the development of in situ, portable, lightweight, versatile and high-sensitivity optical sensing platforms. We report on the generation of lossy mode resonances (LMRs) by means of the deposition of nm-thick SnO2 film on optical fibres. This allows measuring precisely and accurately the changes in refractive index of the fibre-surrounding medium with very high sensitivity compared to other optical technology platforms, such as long period grating or surface plasmon resonance. This approach, mixed with the use of specialty fiber structures such as Dshaped fibres, allows improving the light-matter interaction in strong way. Different imaging systems, i.e. SEM and TEM along with X-EDS tool, have been used to study the optical features of the fiber coating. The shift of the LMR has been monitored in real-time thanks to conventional wavelength interrogation system and ad hoc developed microfluidics. A big leap in performance has been attained by detecting femtomolar concentrations in human serum. The biosensor reusability has been also tested by using a solution of sodium dodecyl sulphate.Publication Open Access Lossy mode resonance based microfluidic platform developed on planar waveguide for biosensing applications(MDPI, 2022) Benítez Pérez, Melanys; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Del Villar, Ignacio; Socorro Leránoz, Abián Bentor; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThe development of resonance phenomena-based optical biosensors has gained relevance in recent years due to the excellent optical fiber properties and progress in the research on materials and techniques that allow resonance generation. However, for lossy mode resonance (LMR)-based sensors, the optical fiber presents disadvantages, such as the need for splicing the sensor head and the complex polarization control. To avoid these issues, planar waveguides such as coverslips are easier to handle, cost-effective, and more robust structures. In this work, a microfluidic LMR-based planar waveguide platform was proposed, and its use for biosensing applications was evaluated by detecting anti-immunoglobulin G (anti-IgG). In order to generate the wavelength resonance, the sensor surface was coated with a titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin-film. IgG antibodies were immobilized by covalent binding, and the detection assay was carried out by injecting anti-IgG in PBS buffer solutions from 5 to 20 μg/mL. The LMR wavelength shifted to higher values when increasing the analyte concentration, which means that the proposed system was able to detect the IgG/anti-IgG binding. The calibration curve was built from the experimental data obtained in three repetitions of the assay. In this way, a prototype of an LMR-based biosensing microfluidic platform developed on planar substrates was obtained for the first timePublication Open Access Gas detection using LMR-based optical fiber sensors(MDPI, 2018) Dreyer, Uilian José; Ozcariz Celaya, Aritz; Ascorbe Muruzabal, Joaquín; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Vitoria Pascual, Ignacio; Martelli, Cicero; Cardozo da Silva, Jean Carlos; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de ComunicaciónThis work presents a first approach to the utilization of Lossy Mode Resonance (LMR) based optical fiber sensors for gas detection. The optical sensor is based on a SnO2 thin-film fabricated onto the core of cladding removed multimode fibers (MMF). The time response of the device to four different gases (NH3, NO, CO2 and O2) was monitored obtaining the best sensitivity for NO whereas the response to NH3 revealed the best repeatability.Publication Open Access Femtomolar detection by nanocoated fiber label-free biosensors(American Chemical Society, 2018) Chiavaioli, Francesco; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Del Villar, Ignacio; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Giannetti, Ambra; Tombelli, Sara; Trono, Cosimo; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Baldini, Francesco; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaThe advent of optical fibre-based biosensors combined with that of nanotechnologies has provided an oppor-tunity for developing in situ, portable, lightweight, versatile and high-performance optical sensing platforms. We report on the generation of lossy mode resonances by the deposition of nm-thick metal oxide films on optical fibres, which makes it possible to measure precisely and accurately the changes in optical properties of the fibre-surrounding medium with very high sensitivity compared to other technology platforms, such as long period gratings or surface plasmon resonances, the gold standard in label-free and real-time biomolecular interaction analysis. This property, combined with the application of specialty structures such as D-shaped fibres, permits enhancing the light-matter interaction. SEM and TEM imaging together with X-EDS tool have been utilised to characterise the two films used, i.e. indium tin oxide and tin dioxide. More-over, the experimental transmission spectra obtained after the deposition of the nanocoatings have been numerically cor-roborated by means of wave propagation methods. With the use of a conventional wavelength interrogation system and ad-hoc developed microfluidics, the shift of the lossy mode resonance can be reliably recorded in response to very low analyte concentrations. Repeated experiments confirm a big leap in performance thanks to the capability to detect femtomolar concentrations in human serum, improving the detection limit by three orders of magnitude when compared with other fibre-based configurations. The biosensor has been regenerated several times by injecting sodium dodecyl sul-phate, which proves the capability of sensor to be reused.
