If the wavelength of the light is small compared to the dimensions of the optical elements of an experimental setup, geometrical optics (ray optics) can be used as a good approximation to describe optical phenomena. This approximation assumes that diffraction...

Copyright 2000 Elsevier. (b) Schematic of H2 sensing MC with an integrated Si photonics-based interferometric optical readout. An underlying waveguide allowed portions of the light passing through it to diffract and reflect from the bottom side of the sensing MC back into the waveguide. This resulted in optical interference, which was dependent on the separation distance between the waveguide and the MC. (c) SEM image of the fabricated H2 sensing MC. The inset shows the A–A′ surface profile of the MC as measured by optical profilometry across the length. The location of the Si photonic waveguide is marked by dashed lines.
