Abstract
A new kind of integrated optical sensor based on planar waveguiding element s is proposed. The sensing technique is by means of interference and transv erse coupling to a single mode guide by using waveguiding lenses. The optic al sensitivity function and the minimum detectable signal are obtained. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
