Mid-Infrared Fiber-Coupled Photoacoustic Sensor for Biomedical Applications
Biomedical devices employed in therapy, diagnostics and for self-monitoring often require a high degree of flexibility and compactness. Many near infrared (NIR) optical fiber-coupled systems meet these requirements and are employed on a daily basis. However, mid-infrared (MIR) fibers-based systems have not yet found their way to routine application in medicine. In this work we present the imple...
متن کاملSilicon photonic devices for mid-infrared applications
The mid-infrared (IR) wavelength region (2–20 μm) is of great interest for a number of applications, including trace gas sensing, thermal imaging, and freespace communications. Recently, there has been significant progress in developing a mid-IR photonics platform in Si, which is highly transparent in the mid-IR, due to the ease of fabrication and CMOS compatibility provided by the Si platform....
متن کاملMid-infrared materials and devices on a Si platform for optical sensing
In this article, we review our recent work on mid-infrared (mid-IR) photonic materials and devices fabricated on silicon for on-chip sensing applications. Pedestal waveguides based on silicon are demonstrated as broadband mid-IR sensors. Our low-loss mid-IR directional couplers demonstrated in SiN x waveguides are useful in differential sensing applications. Photonic crystal cavities and microd...
متن کاملOptical materials for near infrared Wollaston prisms
The optical characteristics of birefringent materials transmitting in the near IR (0.9− 2.5 μm) are analyzed. Wollaston prisms with large beam separation and virtually free from lateral chromatism – e.g. with fields of view > 1 arcmin and image elongation < 0.3′′ – could be manufactured using AgGaS2 or LiYF4 (YLF). These materials are used for non linear applications and may therefore find anot...
