Erratum: Integrated interferometric reflector

Integrated optical driver for interferometric optical gyroscopes.

We present the first chip-scale "integrated optical driver" (IOD) that can interrogate with a sensing coil to realize an interferometric optical gyroscope. The chip comprises a light source, three photodiodes, two phase modulators and two 3-dB couplers within an area of 4.5 mm2. This allows for a significant reduction in size, weight, power consumption and cost of optical gyroscopes.

Integrated Circuit Tester Using Interferometric Imaging

LLE Review, Volume 72 209 A noninvasive optical diagnostic technique for testing the electrical state of an integrated circuit has been developed at LLE. The interferometric probe is capable of distinguishing between the onand off-state of an N-channel field-effect transistor (FET) with micron-size dimensions. Continued development of advanced semiconductor devices relies on the availability of...

Reliability of grating couplers incorporated on integrated interferometric biosensors

Sub-micronic grating couplers have been integrated on optical waveguides for efficient light in-coupling into interferometric biosensors. Design and fabrication processes are presented as well as the results of the optical characterization and the sensing evaluation.

Size-selective detection in integrated optical interferometric biosensors.

We present a new size-selective detection method for integrated optical interferometric biosensors that can strongly enhance their performance. We demonstrate that by launching multiple wavelengths into a Young interferometer waveguide sensor it is feasible to derive refractive index changes from different regions above the waveguide surface, enabling one to distinguish between bound particles ...
