Infrared spectroscopy using semiconductor lasers is a promising technique for trace gas detection. It allows a continuous and real time monitoring of several species, with a high sensitivity and a good selectivity. Among all the possible methods two are pa ...
We study the interaction of a mode propagating in a planar waveguide with a three dimensional rectangular defect (protrusion or notch) in the structure. The scattering by the defect disturbes the propagation of the mode and light is coupled out of the wave ...
Two Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZI), one with Y-junction-couplers and the other with multimode interference (MMI), were presented. Both MZI were developed in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology and used plasma dispersion effect for light phase modulat ...
A new, versatile architecture is presented for microfluidic devices made entirely from glass, for use with reagents which would prove highly corrosive for silicon. Chips consist of three layers of glass wafers bonded together by fusion bonding. On the insi ...
The internal reflection of an excited X-ray waveguide mode in a synthetic nanostructure, defined by electron-beam lithography, has been measured. In this device, the X-ray beam is first coupled into a conventional vertical thin-film waveguide structure and ...
In recent years, optical gas detectors based on a tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer has become more and more important for monitoring trace gases in atmospheric, medical, and industrial processes. In the medical field, blood gases, essentially pO ...
This article presents a new integrated microfluidic/microoptic device designed for basic biochemical analysis. The microfluidic network is Wet-etched in a Borofloat 33 (Pyrex) glass wafer and sealed by means of a second wafer. Unlike other similar microflu ...
We report waveguide-enhanced X-ray experiments on thin macromolecular films, such as spin-coated polymer films, self-assembled polyelectrolyte layers, and lipid membranes, prepared on solid surfaces. Upon the deposition of an additional thin inorganic (met ...
This paper reports on the technology development and characterization of polyimide-based, microfluidic channels with integrated nanoporous membranes. A layer transfer and lamination technique is used to fabricate flexible microchannels from spin-on polyimi ...
The ability to couple high-resolution specimen imaging with chemical state analysis allows problems in biology and medicine to be approached in a novel and powerful way. Element specific chemical state analysis can be performed at tunable synchrotron X-ray ...
