Research Abstract

In this research, we proposed a new application of an Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG) for a compact planar spectroscopic sensor to meet both conditions for miniaturization and high-wavelength resolution in the sub-nanometer order. This sensor can perform with a tiny sample of unify alight source, dispersion element, sample cell, and a photo-detector on the substrate of chip size, and measure in a very simple and quick procedure with no need for unnecessary rotation drive of a device. Results of this research are shown here.
1)A liquid sample under test is poured into a groove (optical path length, 70 μm : groove depth, 110 μm) in the first slab region of the AWG. A preliminary experiment was carried out using water solution of sodium acetate with the fabricated near-infrared AWG sensor. Concentration of the sodium acetate solute could be determined with the average accuracy of ±0.25 weight%.
2)We designed and fabricated a compact spectroscopic sensor using an AWG in the visible wavelength. And the optimal design of a sample injection groove was carried out in consideration of transmittance of the chlorophyll a, b as various environmental indicators. We succeeded in discriminating chlorophyll solutions. Also we obtained a transmittance difference of 1.4dB which is two times higher than that in the conventional scheme of 0.7 dB by absorbency change of 1.0.
3)Parabola-shaped sample injection waveguide is effective to improve the sensitivity because diffraction loss is reduced. We designed a parabola-shaped sample injection waveguide for discrimination of chlorophyll a and b. Improvement of sensitivity to transmittance difference was demonstrated by numerical simulation using the designed visible AWG spectroscopic sensor.
From these theoretical and experimental investigations using a visible AWG, a compact AWG-based spectroscopic sensor has been confirmed to be effective in acquiring body information in biomedical fields.
