    Lossy mode resonances generated in planar configuration for two-parameter sensing
    (IEEE, 2021-04-29) Fuentes Lorenzo, Omar; Corres Sanz, Jesús María; Domínguez Rodríguez, Ismel; Del Villar, Ignacio; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC
    This work shows a new sensor structure for simultaneous measurement of two parameters, temperature and refractive index. The optical configuration consists of incidence of light on the edge of a soda-lime coverslip fully coated with a CuO thin film and partially coated with a PDMS thick layer. This planar configuration permitted to generate two separated lossy mode resonances (LMRs): one centered at 600 nm and the other at 1000 nm. The second resonance is induced by the PDMS layer and it can be used to measure the temperature due to its high thermo-optic coefficient (the sensitivity is -1.75 nm/°C in the temperature range from 20 to 40 °C), whereas the first resonance is used for sensing refractive index with sensitivity of 1460 nm/RIU in the refractive index range from 1.3328 and 1.37. Finally, a calibration test was carried out using a calibrated oil series with refractive index ranging from 1.33 to 1.36. This work demonstrates the possibility of generating multiples resonances in a single structure as simple as a coverslip, which can be used as a multi-parameter interchangeable sensor, especially suitable for biological applications or the detection of heavy metals in water.

    Multichannel refractometer based on lossy mode resonances
    (IEEE, 2022) Fuentes Lorenzo, Omar; Corres Sanz, Jesús María; Domínguez Rodríguez, Ismel; Del Villar, Ignacio; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    In this work a new multiparameter sensor platform based on lossy mode resonances is presented. The structure consists of a soda-lime optical slab waveguide butt-coupled to multimode optical fibers. A variable thickness thin-film is deposited to generate multiple independent resonances on the same waveguide, which can be monitored using a single spectrometer. In order to show the potentiality of the structure, a broad resonance was selectively narrowed by etching sections of the LMR producer thin film. The spectral width is progressively reduced, allowing to selectively isolate independent resonances, which opens the path for multiple LMR generation in the same spectra in a multiparameter sensing platform. The experimental results were corroborated with a theoretical analysis based on the finite difference method (FDM). As a proof of concept, two refractometers on the same waveguide were fabricated and tested using PDMS cells. This platform can be easily miniaturized in order to integrate multiple sensors at low cost, what can be of interest for the development of multi-analyte biosensors probes. IEEE

    Interdigital concept in photonic sensors based on an array of lossy mode resonances

    Multi-parameter detection is key in the domain of sensors. Here it is demonstrated that an indium tin oxide (ITO) nanocoating can be used to generate multiple lossy mode resonances (LMRs) in the optical spectrum. To achieve this, a nanocoating with a gradient in thickness is generated on the surface of a planar waveguide, permitting broadening of the LMR because the position of an LMR in the optical spectrum is directly related to the nanocoating thickness. The nanocoating with a gradient in thickness contributes multiple LMRs, each one centred at a different wavelength. With a further etching or deposition using a mask, a pattern of deposited and non-deposited regions can be created, resulting in isolation of the LMRs by preventing LMR overlap. This enables tracking of each central wavelength separately, which can be tuned through control of the gradient or nanocoating pattern. The array of LMR-based sensors is a photonics analogue to the interdigital concept in electronics, enabling multiple resonances to be used for multiparameter sensing.
