Popis: | Optical spectroscopy is among the most important chemical analysis techniques, due to its high specificity and long-term stability. For spectroscopic analysis of gas compositions, the mid infrared (mid-IR) region is particularly important, owing to the rovibrational resonances in that spectral range. Hence, there is great interest in miniaturizing and reducing the power consumption of optical spectroscopic sensors, but until recently the mid-IR range has been out of reach. We demonstrate spectroscopic sensing of carbon dioxide using an integrated silicon waveguide at the strong absorption peak at 4.23 µm wavelength. We show different measurement principles that leverage the power of integrated optics in innovative ways. |
