Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Light signals in optical waveguides can be used to transmit very large amounts of data quickly and largely without interference. In the industrial and infrastructural sectors, e.g. in the automotive and aerospace industries, the demand to further exploit this potential is therefore increasing. Which technologies can be used to effectively integrate systems that transmit data by means of light into existing components? This is a central question for current research. So far, there have been some technical limitations in this regard. For example, it is difficult to couple the signal of an optical waveguide to other optical waveguides without interruption. There is also a lack of suitable fabrication technologies for three-dimensional waveguides, as well as design and simulation environments for 3D opto-MID. This book addresses these and other challenges.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is an initial investigation into polymer waveguides. The CAD program BEAMPROP is utilized for modeling of waveguides. Passive multi-mode and single-mode waveguides are considered. For modeling nonlinear optical polymers, in addition to the BEAMPROPAGATION (BEAMPROP) method, the effective index method and the MARCATILI model are developed. It is shown that a conducting cladding layer for the rectangular waveguides could significantly improve the operation performance of nonlinear optical, poled polymer waveguides.

Download or read book Applied Photochemistry written by Rachel C. Evans and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Photochemistry encompasses the major applications of the chemical effects resulting from light absorption by atoms and molecules in chemistry, physics, medicine and engineering, and contains contributions from specialists in these key areas. Particular emphasis is placed both on how photochemistry contributes to these disciplines and on what the current developments are. The book starts with a general description of the interaction between light and matter, which provides the general background to photochemistry for non-specialists. The following chapters develop the general synthetic and mechanistic aspects of photochemistry as applied to both organic and inorganic materials, together with types of materials which are useful as light absorbers, emitters, sensitisers, etc. for a wide variety of applications. A detailed discussion is presented on the photochemical processes occurring in the Earth’s atmosphere, including discussion of important current aspects such as ozone depletion. Two important distinct, but interconnected, applications of photochemistry are in photocatalytic treatment of wastes and in solar energy conversion. Semiconductor photochemistry plays an important role in these and is discussed with reference to both of these areas. Free radicals and reactive oxygen species are of major importance in many chemical, biological and medical applications of photochemistry, and are discussed in depth. The following chapters discuss the relevance of using light in medicine, both with various types of phototherapy and in medical diagnostics. The development of optical sensors and probes is closely related to diagnostics, but is also relevant to many other applications, and is discussed separately. Important aspects of applied photochemistry in electronics and imaging, through processes such as photolithography, are discussed and it is shown how this is allowing the increasing miniaturisation of semiconductor devices for a wide variety of electronics applications and the development of nanometer scale devices. The final two chapters provide the basic ideas necessary to set up a photochemical laboratory and to characterise excited states. This book is aimed at those in science, engineering and medicine who are interested in applying photochemistry in a broad spectrum of areas. Each chapter has the basic theories and methods for its particular applications and directs the reader to the current, important literature in the field, making Applied Photochemistry suitable for both the novice and the experienced photochemist.

Download or read book Design, Fabrication and Characterization of Optical Biosensors Based on (Bloch) Long Range Surface Plasmon Waveguides written by Maryam Khodami and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis by articles, I propose and demonstrate the full design, fabrication and characterization of optical biosensors based on (Bloch) Long Range Surface Plasmon Polaritons (LRSPPs). Gold waveguides embedded in CYTOP with an etched microfluidic channel supporting LRSPPs and gold waveguides on a one-dimensional photonic crystal (1DPC) supporting Bloch LRSPPs are exploited for biosensing applications. Straight gold waveguides embedded in CYTOP supporting LRSPPs as a biosensor, are initially used to measure the kinetics constants of protein-protein interactions. The kinetics constants are extracted from binding curves using the integrated rate equation. Linear and non-linear least squares analysis are employed to obtain the kinetics constants and the results are compared. The device is also used to demonstrate enhanced assay formats (sandwich and inhibition assays) and protein concentrations as low as 10 pg/ml in solution are detected with a signal-to-noise ratio of 20 using this new optical biosensor technology. CYTOP which has a refractive index close to water is the fluoropolymer of choice in current state of the art waveguide biosensors. CYTOP has a low glass transition temperature which introduces limitations in fabrication processes. A truncated 1D photonic crystal can replace a low-index polymer cladding such as CYTOP, to support Bloch LRSPPs within the bandgap of the 1DPC over a limited ranges of wavenumber and wavelength. Motivated by quality issues with end facets, we seek to use grating couplers in a broadside coupling scheme where a laser beam emerging from an optical fiber excites Bloch LRSPPs on a Au stripe on a truncated 1D photonic crystal. Adiabatic and non-adiabatic flared stripes accommodating wide gratings size-matched to an incident Gaussian beam are designed and compared to maximise the coupling efficiency to LRSPPs. The gratings are optimized, initially, through 2D modelling using the vectorial finite element method (FEM). Different 3D grating designs were then investigated via 3D modelling using the vectorial finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. Given their compatibility with planar technologies, gratings and waveguides can be integrated into arrays of biosensors enabling multi-channel biosensing. A multi-channel platform can provide, e.g., additional measurements to improve the reliability in a disease detection problem. Thus, a novel optical biosensor based on Bloch LRSPPs on waveguide arrays integrated with electrochemical biosensors is presented. The structures were fabricated on truncated 1D photonic crystals comprised of 15 period stack of alternating layers of SiO2/Ta2O5. The optical biosensors consist of Au stripes supporting Bloch LRSPPs and integrate grating couplers as input/output means. The Au stripes also operate as a working electrode in conjunction with a neighboring Pt counter electrode to form an electrochemical sensor. The structures were fabricated using bilayer lift-off photolithography and the gratings were fabricated using overlaid e-beam lithography. The planar waveguides are integrated into arrays capable of multichannel biosensing. The wafer is covered with CYTOP as the upper cladding with etched microfluidic channels, and wafer-bonded to a borofloat silica wafer to seal the fluidic channels and enable side fluidic interfaces. The proposed device is capable in principle of simultaneous optical and electrochemical sensing and could be used to address disease detection problems using a multimodal strategy.
