Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a biological sensor, in particular to an athermalized biological sensor with a photonic crystal triple resonant cavity. Background technique [0002] Biosensors use biologically active units as biologically sensitive units and are highly selective detectors for analytes. They have important applications in environmental monitoring, biological defense, food testing, disease monitoring, and drug development. In recent years, with the development of photonic integration technology and the concept of Lab-on-a-chip (Lab-on-a-chip), biosensors based on photonic crystal resonators have the advantages of fast detection speed, high sensitivity, good real-time performance, It has become one of the research hotspots in the field of biosensing due to the advantages of no labeling, no interference from environment and power frequency. [0003] The biosensor market is huge and is on the rise every year. According to Market Research, a profe...

Problems solved by technology

However, this method also has some inherent disadvantages

Due to the high integration characteristics of biosensors based on resonant cavities, a chip can integrate hundreds of sensing units. If a whole biosensing chip is equipped with only one reference resonant cavity, the distance between the reference resonant cavity and the detection resonant cavity will be too large. In actual application, if the temperature of the chip is not uniform, the reference resonator cannot provide a valuable reference value

However, if a reference resonant cavity is arranged in each sensing unit, there will be a waste of area, which is not conducive to the design and manufacture of highly integrated biosensing chips.
