Publication Open Access Photonic chip breath analyzer(SpringerOpen, 2025-06-03) Gallego Martínez, Elieser Ernesto; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThis work introduces a novel single-package optical sensing device for multiple gas sensing, which is suitable for breath analysis applications. It is fabricated on a coverslip substrate via a sputtering technique and uses a planar waveguide configuration with lateral incidence of light. It features three sequentially ordered strips of different materials, which serve to increase the multivariate nature of the response of the device to different gases. For the proof-of-concept, the selected materials are indium tin oxide (ITO), tin oxide (SnO2), and chromium oxide III (Cr2O3), while the selected gases are nitric oxide (NO), acetylene (C2H2), and ammonia (NH3). The sensing mechanism is based on the hyperbolic mode resonance (HMR) effect, with the first-order resonance obtained for each strip located in the near infrared region. The multivariate response of the resonances and the correlation with the concentration of each gas allow training a machine learning (ML) model based on a nonlinear autoregressive neural network, enabling the accurate prediction of the concentration of each gas. The obtained limit of detection for all the gases was in the order of a few parts per billion. This innovative approach coined as the multivariate optical resonances spectroscopy demonstrates the potential of HMR-based optical sensors in combination with ML techniques for ultra-sensitive multi-gas detection applications using a single device.Publication Open Access LMR-based optical sensor for ethylene detection at visible and mid-infrared regions(IEEE, 2023) Gallego Martínez, Elieser Ernesto; Hualde Otamendi, Mikel; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaEthylene monitoring has long been a method of controlling the ripening of climacteric fruits, but it turns out that this gas is an important biomarker in biomedical applications. This work presents an optical gas sensor based on the lossy mode resonance (LMR) effect for ethylene detection in planar waveguide configuration. Two different approaches have been explored: one in the visible (VIS) spectral region and the second one in the mid infrared (MIR) region. Optical resonances have been achieved, in all cases, by means of sputtered tin oxide thin films. Response and recovery times were 54 and 246 s, respectively, for the sensor with the resonance in the VIS region, while the device operating in the MIR obtained response and recovery times of 19 and 47 s, respectively. The sensitivity during ethylene detection varied from 93.8 to 187.5 pm/ppm with the devices working in the VIS and MIR regions, respectively. According to the calibration curve, devices show an ethylene limit of detection (LOD) of 4.0058 and 0.6532 ppm in the VIS and MIR spectral regions, respectively, which finds applications in climacteric fruit ripening assessment as well as hemodialysis control. Cross sensitivity with humidity was also characterized for both devices.Publication Open Access Gas sensor based on lossy mode resonances by means of thin graphene oxide films fabricated onto planar coverslips(MDPI, 2023) Vitoria Pascual, Ignacio; Gallego Martínez, Elieser Ernesto; Melendi Espina, Sonia; Hernáez Sáenz de Zaitigui, Miguel; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThe use of planar waveguides has recently shown great success in the field of optical sensors based on the Lossy Mode Resonance (LMR) phenomenon. The properties of Graphene Oxide (GO) have been widely exploited in various sectors of science and technology, with promising results for gas sensing applications. This work combines both, the LMR-based sensing technology on planar waveguides and the use of a GO thin film as a sensitive coating, to monitor ethanol, water, and acetone. Experimental results on the fabrication and performance of the sensor are presented. The obtained results showed a sensitivity of 3.1, 2.0, and 0.6 pm/ppm for ethanol, water, and acetone respectively, with a linearity factor R2 > 0.95 in all cases.
