Radio Frequency Detection and Characterization of Water-Ethanol Solution through Spiral-Coupled Passive Micro-Resonator Sensor

Passive microring-resonator-coupled lasers

In this letter, a passive microring-resonator-coupled semiconductor laser structure is proposed. The weakly coupled high-Q microring resonator provides a strong mode-selection filter and could considerably extend the effective cavity length of a conventional Fabry–Perot laser. The side-mode suppression ratio, the linewidth and the frequency chirp of this laser are dramatically improved comparin...

InP-Based Passive Ring-Resonator-Coupled Lasers

Design of passive ring-coupled lasers based on InGaAsP waveguides is investigated using beam propagation method. Mode coupling, propagation loss due to bending, and scattering loss from waveguide sidewall roughness are taken into account. By compromising threshold gain, linewidth and side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR), suitable waveguide width and coupling strength are determined for different ...

Design and Simulation of a Fluidic Micro-Bio-Sensor Based on Resonator Array

In this paper, a fluidic biosensor with possibility to fabricate by Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology is proposed for biomedical mass detection and lab-on-chip applications. This is designed by electromechanical coupling of harmonic micromechanical resonators with harmonic springers as a mechanical resonator array. It can disperse mechanical wave along the array by electrostati...

Gas Sensor with Electroacoustically Coupled Resonator

Abstract A new configuration for a gas sensor is demonstrated. The configuration consists of an electroacoustic element coupled to an acoustic resonator, such as Kundt’s tube, exhibiting a resonance frequency that is related to the velocity of sound, which, in turn, is a function of the molecular mass of the gas within the resonator. Electrical impedance measurements were performed, whereby a r...
