Abstract

The invention provides a cascade micro cavities based digital integrated-optical waveguide sensor, comprising a constant micro cavity, an input waveguide, n sensing micro cavities, n connected waveguides, n output waveguides and n sample cells, wherein n is not less than 1. The sensing micro cavities are arranged in the sample cells. The input waveguide is arranged at one side of the constant micro cavity. One end of the input waveguide is coupled with the constant micro cavity and the other end thereof serves as the optical source incoming end of the whole optical waveguide sensor. One end of each connected waveguide is coupled with the constant micro cavity and the other end thereof is coupled with one sensing micro cavity. One end of each output waveguide is coupled with one sensing micro cavity and the other end thereof serves as the sensing signal outgoing end. The optical waveguide sensor has the digital operating mode, features high sensitivity, good anti-noise property and high reliability, is easy to expand to realize regular arrays, is convenient to integrate with integrated spectrometer chips and is conductive to realizing integrated, miniaturized, portable and low-cost sensing system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a digital integrated optical waveguide sensor based on cascaded microcavities, belonging to the field of optical sensing. Background technique [0002] In the fields of drug development, environmental monitoring, and food safety testing, reliable testing methods are indispensable, and sensing technology is its core technology. Using advanced sensing technology, qualitative or quantitative analysis can be performed on the composition / concentration of substances. Optical sensing is an important branch of sensing technology. Its basic principle is: when the measured substance interacts with the light field, it will cause changes in some parameters of the optical signal (such as intensity, wavelength, phase, polarization state, mode distribution, etc.). [0003] Among the many different forms of optical sensors, the integrated optical waveguide sensor is currently the most concerned type. Integrated optical waveguide sensors usua...
