“…Silicon photonics are a promising solution for large-scale and high-performance photonic integrated circuits (PICs) with a growing amount of applications in the optical interconnections [ 1 , 2 ], programmable photonics processors [ 3 , 4 ], and optical sensors [ 5 , 6 , 7 ]. Integrated silicon photonics sensors especially, have attracted great attention in the fields of environmental monitoring [ 8 ], industrial production [ 6 , 9 ], medical diagnosis [ 10 ], and chemical analysis [ 11 ], due to their high sensitivity, compact footprint, and mass production capabilities [ 12 , 13 ].…”
