    Experimental demonstration of lossy mode resonance generation for transverse-magnetic and transverse-electric polarizations
    (Optica Publishing Group, 2013) Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Sagüés García, Mikel; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    This Letter, presents the fabrication of lossy mode resonance (LMR) devices based on titanium dioxide (TiO2)/ poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) coatings deposited on side-polished D-shaped optical fibers. TiO2 thin films have been obtained by means of the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technique. LbL enables us to produce smooth and homogeneous coatings on the polished side of the fiber. This permits us to couple light from the waveguide to the TiO2-coating/external medium region at specific wavelength ranges. The generation of LMRs depends on the coating thickness, so that thicker coatings can produce more resonances. LMRs are sensitive to the external medium refractive index, which allows its utilization as refractometers. The characteristic D-shaped architecture of the devices employed in this Letter enables us to distinguish TE and TM polarizations, which had not been possible before with regular optical fibers due to their cylindrical symmetry. The results presented here show for the first time the experimental demonstration of the generation of LMRs produced by both TM and TE polarizations. More specifically, for these TiO2/PSS thin films, the TM and TM modes of the LMRs show a wavelength shift of 226 nm for the first-order LMR and 56 nm for the second-order LMR.

    Rheumatoid arthritis miRNA biomarker detection by means of LMR based fiber-optic biosensor
    (IEEE, 2020) Imas González, José Javier; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Zubiate Orzanco, Pablo; Campión, J.; Sánchez-Martín, L.; 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 Publikoa, PJUPNA26
    Development of miRNA optical biosensors for disease diagnosis and monitoring has acquired relevance in recent years, due to the clinical importance of miRNA and the inherent advantages of optical sensors. Here, we present the utilization of a fiber optic sensor based on Lossy Mode Resonance (LMR) for the detection of miRNA hsa-miR-223, a promising biomarker for the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
