| The detection of molecules dissolved in liquid medium can be envisaged by means of an optical integrated sensor operating in middle infrared range. The intended sensor is composed of a cladding and a guiding selenide sputtered layers transparent in middle infrared. Hence, Ge-Sb-Se thin films were selected in view of tailored refractive index contrast, successfully deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering and characterized. To maximize the evanescent field at a wavelength of 7.7 µm, a suitable selenide waveguide allowing measuring the optical transmitted power was designed by performing computer simulations based on the effective index method enabling single-mode propagation for a waveguide width between 8 and 12 µm. Selenide sputtered films were... |
