Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on the first demonstration of guiding light in vertical slot-waveguides on silicon nitride/silicon oxide material system. Integrated ring resonators and Fabry-Perot cavities have been fabricated and characterized in order to determine optical features of the slot-waveguides. Group index behavior evidences guiding and confinement in the low-index slot region at O-band (1260-1370nm) telecommunication wavelengths. Propagation losses of < 20 dB/cm have been measured for the transverse-electric mode of the slot-waveguides.

Label-free optical biosensing with slot-waveguides

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We demonstrate label-free molecule detection by using an integrated biosensor based on a Si3N4/SiO2 Slot-waveguide microring resonator. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and anti-BSA molecular binding events on the sensor surface are monitored through the measurement of resonant wavelength shifts with varying biomolecule concentrations. The biosensor exhibited sensitivities of 1.8 and 3.2 nm/(ng/mm(2)) for the detection of anti-BSA and BSA, respectively. The estimated detection limits are 28 and 16 pg/mm(2) for anti-BSA and BSA, respectively, limited by wavelength resolution.

Slot-waveguide biochemical sensor
- 2007
-
In: Optics Letters. - 0146-9592 .- 1539-4794. ; 32:21, s. 3080-3082

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report an experimental demonstration of an integrated biochemical sensor based on a slot-waveguidemicroring resonator. The microresonator is fabricated on a Si3N4-SiO2 platform and operates at a wavelength of 1.3 mu m. The transmission spectrum of the sensor is measured with different ambient refractive indices ranging from n = 1. 33 to 1.42. A linear shift of the resonant wavelength with increasing ambient refractive index of 212 nm/refractive index units (RIU) is observed. The sensor detects a minimal refractive index variation of 2 X 10(-4) RIU.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The group index, instead of the effective index, is used to analyze the performance of a Si(3)N(4)-SiO(2) slot-waveguide microring refractive index sensor [Opt. Lett. 32, 3080 (2007)]. Assuming that the slot is fully filled with liquid, excellent agreement is found between experimental results and calculations.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We have experimentally demonstrated high Q-factors strip waveguide resonators using the Si3N4/SiO2 material platform at the wavelength of 1.31μm. The analyzed filters demonstrate high quality factors reaching 133,000. The dependence on resonator radii and coupling gap is also discussed.
