Silicon-on-insulator microring resonators for photonic biosensing applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Silicon-on-insulator microring resonators have proven to be an excellent platform for label-free nanophotonic biosensors. The high index contrast of the silicon-on-insulator waveguides allows for fabrication of micrometer size sensors.

Electrothermally-Actuated Micromirrors with Bimorph Actuators—Bending-Type and Torsion-Type

open access: yesSensors, 2015
Three different electrothermally-actuated MEMS micromirrors with Cr/Au-Si bimorph actuators are proposed. The devices are fabricated with the SOIMUMPs process developed by MEMSCAP, Inc. (Durham, NC, USA).

Compact Gas Sensor Using Silicon-on-Insulator Loop-Terminated Mach–Zehnder Interferometer

open access: yesPhotonics, 2021
In this paper, we propose a compact optical gas sensor based on the widespread silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology, operating in the near-infrared (NIR) region around the 1.55 µm wavelength.

Enhanced Sensitivity of Silicon-On-Insulator Surface Plasmon Interferometer With Additional Silicon Layer

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2011
It is theoretically found that by adding a thin silicon layer (35 nm) on top of our previously proposed surface plasmon interference (SPI) biosensor in silicon on insulator (SOI), a sensitivity enhancement of up to 2500 nm/refractive index units (RIUs ...

Focused-ion-beam fabricated vertical fiber couplers on silicon-on-insulator waveguides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We fabricated grating couplers in silicon-on-insulator waveguides with focused-ion-beam. First devices were very lossy, but by using selective etchant and a hard mask we obtained efficiencies comparable to traditional fabrication ...

Effect of Gate Dielectric Material on the Electrical Properties of MoSe2-Based Metal–Insulator–Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor

open access: yesCrystals, 2022
In this study, we fabricated metal–insulator–semiconductor field-effect transistors (MISFETs) based on nanolayered molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) using two insulator materials, silicon dioxide (SiO2) and silicon nitride (SiN).
