Chemical sensing in slotted photonic crystal heterostructure cavities

Di Falco, A., O’Faolain, L., Krauss, T. F.·2009·Applied Physics Letters

Abstract

We fabricated slotted photonic crystal waveguides and cavities supporting resonant modes in air. Their peculiar geometry enables the detection of refractive index changes in a given analyte with high sensitivity because of the large overlap between the optical mode and the analyte. This yields a high figure of merit for the sensitivity of the device and we are able to report values of S=Δλ/Δn over 1500. By applying a photonic crystal heterostructure to the slotted geometry, we are able to create high quality-factor cavities essential for realizing low detection limits up to Q=50 000.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
