  1. In this paper, we demonstrated the design and experimental results of the near-infrared lab-on-a-chip optical biosensor platform that monolithically integrates the MRR and the on-chip spectrometer on the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer, which can eliminate the external optical spectrum analyzer for scanning the wavelength spectrum. The symmetric add-drop MRR biosensor is designed to have a free spectral range (FSR) of ∼19 nm and a bulk sensitivity of ∼73 nm/RIU; then the drop-port output resonance peaks are reconstructed from the integrated spatial-heterodyne Fourier transform spectrometer (SHFTS) with the spectral resolution of ∼3.1 nm and the bandwidth of ∼50 nm, which results in the limit of detection of 0.042 RIU.

  2. We design and experimentally demonstrate the propagation loss of waveguides and the operation of a single-step etched polarization rotator-splitter (PRS) in low index contrast InGaAs-InP material system at 6.15 μm. Propagation losses 4.19 dB/cm for TM mode and 3.25 dB/cm for TE mode are measured. The designed PRS can achieve near 100% conversion efficiency. This study enables the possibility of monolithic integration of quantum cascade devices with TM-polarized characteristics and TE-guiding two-dimensional slotted photonic crystal waveguide gas sensors for on-chip monolithic absorption spectroscopy.
