Evanescent-Wave Gas Sensing Using an Integrated Thermal Light Source
The last years showed an increased request for miniaturised, CMOS-compatible gas detectors. In contrast to sensors utilizing metal-oxide chemical interfaces, optical strategies are potentially faster and more robust. Recently we demonstrated CO2 detection by evanescent-wave absorption in the mid-infrared using a combination of an external laser source and silicon waveguides based on CMOS techno...
متن کاملExperimental demonstration of guiding and confining light in nanometer-size low-refractive-index material.
We experimentally demonstrate a novel silicon waveguide structure for guiding and confining light in nanometer-wide low-refractive-index material. The optical field in the low-index material is enhanced because of the discontinuity of the electric field at high-index-contrast interfaces. We measure a 30% reduction of the effective index of light propagating in the novel structure due to the pre...
متن کاملEvanescent light scattering with magnetic colloids
We measure magnetic interactions between paramagnetic colloidal beads and an external magnetic field by using total internal reflection microscopy TIRM . Our results demonstrate that TIRM can be applied to absorptive paramagnetic probe particles and thus extends the range of interaction types which can be addressed with this method. With our setup, we can detect magnetic forces on single superp...
متن کاملDetermination of the size distribution of monodesperse and bidisperse mixtures of spherical particles in the nanometer and submicron size range by applying cumulant analysis and contin algorithm in dynamic light scattering
Determination of particle size is one of the major needs in the industry and biotechnology. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a widely used technique for determining size distribution of spherical particle in nanometer and submicron size range. In this method, there are different algorithms for determining the size and size distribution of particles, which are selected according to the required...
متن کاملScanning optical microscopy with an electrogenerated chemiluminescent light source at a nanometer tip.
Electrogenerated chemiluminescence at electrodes with effective diameters down to 155 nm was used as a stable light source for near-field scanning optical microscopy imaging of an interdigitated array and a submicrometer size test substrate. Light was generated in a thin (approximately 500 microm) layer of an aqueous solution of 15 mM Ru(bpy)3(2+) and 100 mM tri-n-propylamine in a pH 7.5 buffer...
