A novel water-core microstructure fibre design allows nearly ideal guidance for aqueous
sensing applications. The total internal reflection by a microstructured silica–air cladding …

We show that the artificial resonances of dielectric optical cavities can be used to enhance
the detection sensitivity of evanescent-wave optical fluorescence biosensors to the binding …

We presented a significant improvement of the evanescent field ratio in a ridge waveguide
modified into a dual hybrid plasmonic waveguide by tapering the middle section of the …

In this paper, a new multilayer integrated optical sensor (MIOS) for ammonia detection at
room temperature is proposed and characterized. The sensor is integrated on a single-mode …

Techniques for the detection of hazardous low‐volatility contaminants on surfaces are
reviewed. These techniques include both point detection (ie, in situ) and standoff detection …

We propose an optical waveguide sensor that uses a leaky guided mode for measuring
absorption of liquid samples. The sensor is composed of a single coupling prism on which a …

Zinc oxide was deposited on the glass substrate as a waveguide sensor by chemical vapor
deposition technique. The structure, surface morphology and optical properties of ZnO thin …

Herein, a numerical study is presented on standard slot waveguide and double hybrid
plasmonic waveguide based on a siliconon-insulator platform. The geometric parameters of …

We demonstrate a new type of fiber optic pH sensor, which is the application of evanescent-
wave spectroscopic technique. A methyl red (MR)-doped-poly (methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) …

The field of biomolecular interaction analysis has been revolutionised over the past decade
with the development of biosensors that enable'real-time'monitoring. Characteristically …
