POROUS SILICON WAVEGUIDE BIOSENSORS WITH A GRATING COUPLER

Sensitive label-free optical biosensors based on grating-coupled porous silicon (PSi) waveguides are demonstrated for biosensing applications. This is the first time that the benefits of both PSi and diffraction gratings have been combined for the detection of small molecules. The large surface area...
