    Influence of waist length in lossy mode resonances generated with coated tapered single mode optical fibers
    (IEEE, 2011) Socorro Leránoz, Abián Bentor; Del Villar, Ignacio; Corres Sanz, Jesús María; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    In this work, the generation of electromagnetic resonances due to the deposition of a nanocoating on a tapered single-mode optical fiber is analyzed. The layer-by-layer technique is used to control the thickness of the nanocoating. According to the results that have been obtained, the depth of the resonance depends on the length of the waist region. Variations in the transmitted optical power of 40 dB are observed in just a few layers. This can be considered in the fabrication of both highly sensitive resonance-based sensors and optical filters.

    In the last 4 years, experimental evidences about the potential use of optical sensors based on Lossy Mode Resonances (LMR) have been presented in the literature. These LMR sensors have some similarities with Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensors, the gold standard in label-free, real-time biomolecular interaction analysis. In these new LMR sensors, if the non-metallic nanocladding of an optical waveguide fulfills the conditions explained in this work, coupling of light to the cladding modes happens at certain resonance wavelengths, which enables the use of LMR devices as refractometers and opens the door to diverse applications such as in biology and proteomics research. These highly sensitive refractometers have already shown sensitivities higher than 20,000 nm/RIU or 5x10-7 RIU and, given the youth of this field, it is expected to achieve even better values.
