Porous 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 کاملMultiparametric Porous Silicon Sensors
We investigated the possibility of using several sensing parameters from porous silicon in order to improve gas selectivity. By fabricating porous silicon optical microcavities, three independent quantities can be measured, i.e. the electrical conductance, the photoluminescence intensity, and the wavelength of the optical resonance. We monitored the change of these three parameters as a functio...
متن کاملPorous Silicon Sensors - from Single Layers to Multilayer Structures
1.1 Origin and discovery Silicon, one of the more common elements in nature, is defined as a metalloid, which corresponds to the number 14 in the Mendeleyev Periodic Table. It is heavier than Carbon (element number 6 in the periodic table and a key component in biochemistry), but both have chemical characteristics that are very close. Since human civilization began, volcanic stones containing t...
متن کاملOptical 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 کاملIntegrated Optical Gas Sensors on Silicon-on-Insulator Platform
We demonstrate highly sensitive micro-optical hydrogen and ethanol sensors on SOI microring resonators (MRR) using chemical coatings sensitive to the corresponding gases. Hydrogen concentrations below the lower explosion limit and ethanol vapor concentration below 100ppm are detected. ©2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (000.0000) General; (000.0000)
