Abstract
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
