Optical DNA Sensing Based on Resonant Porous Silicon Structures
Porous silicon is a suitable host material for biosensing applications due to its high surface area to volume ratio, which enables substantial infiltration of biomolecules. Resonant waveguides can be fabricated from porous silicon based on a two layer porous silicon structure. Light is coupled into the waveguide only at a particular angle of incidence. Biomolecular binding inside the pores indu...
متن کاملPorous Silicon Structures as Optical Gas Sensors
We present a short review of recent progress in the field of optical gas sensors based on porous silicon (PSi) and PSi composites, which are separate from PSi optochemical and biological sensors for a liquid medium. Different periodical and nonperiodical PSi photonic structures (bares, modified by functional groups or infiltrated with sensory polymers) are described for gas sensing with an emph...
متن کاملPhotosensitive porous silicon based structures
We present results of electrical and photoelectrical measurements on two types of Al/porous silicon (PS)/monocrystalline silicon (c-Si)/Al sandwich structures with thin and thick PS layers obtained by stain etching. Current-voltage characteristics and photosensitivity spectra indicate that for structures with a thin PS layer the photosensitivity is determined by PS/c-Si heterojunctions (HJ), wh...
متن کاملTowards a biosensor based on anti resonant reflecting optical waveguide fabricated from porous silicon.
Recently, we demonstrated that Anti Resonant Reflecting Optical Waveguide (ARROW) based on porous silicon (PS) material can be used as a transducer for the development of a new optical biosensor. Compared to a conventional biosensor waveguide based on evanescent waves, the ARROW structure is designed to allow a better overlap between the propagated optical field and the molecules infiltrated in...
متن کاملSimulations and Analysis of Nano Scale Porous Silicon Structures for Optical Sensor Applications
Recently, Porous Silicon (PS) is emerged as novel and unique material as a stable nano scale optical sensor device. In this work, one dimensional (1D) Photonic Bandgap (PBG) structures such as single layer (SL), Distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) and Microcavity (MC) using PS material are suggested as optical sensor applications. Design and simulations are relying on the Bruggeman’s Effective Me...
