“…Mode coupling between two guided modes propagating through common waveguides can be utilized too [117,118]. For this a directional coupler configuration can be applied and the value of the measurand can be derived from the output powers of both output branches.…”

During the last decade there has been a rapidly growing interest in integrated optical (IO) sensors, especially because many of them principally allow for sensitive, real-time, label-free on-site measurements of the concentration of (bio-) chemical species. This review aims at giving an overview of the most relevant developments in this area. After a general introduction into the field of IO sensors for the chemical domain, relevant aspects of integrated optics and chemical sensing are presented in short. A large variety of IO sensing platforms are introduced and discussed: interferometers, resonators, coupling-based devices such as grating couplers and surface plasmon resonance based sensors and finally a new class of sensors based on chemically induced field profile changes. Strong and weak points of principle and of configurations based on these principles are indicated and the main performance data of the IO sensing platforms, especially the obtained resolution, are indicated. Best resolutions of the chemically induced refractive indices on the order of magnitude 10−6–10−8 RIU can be obtained, corresponding to a resolution of 10−3–10−5 nm in the chemically induced growth of layer thickness of chemo-optical transducer materials. Depending on the analyte and the type of transduction layer chemical concentrations down to some ppb or some pg ml−1 can be determined. Several IO sensing systems are commercially available. Extension of individual sensors to sensor arrays is treated and finally an outlook for the future is given.

“…Fast response can be achieved by using a very thin CO transducing layer and high sensitivity by the use of surface plasmons, in which the light energy is highly concentrated in the transducing layer. Kreuwel et al 2 developed an SPR-based solid state microsensor by coupling the surface plasmon supporting structure to a planar waveguiding system, thus abandoning the rather bulky optical equipment that is commonly used.…”

Chemo-optical micro-sensing systems, whether based on fiber optics or integrated optics show promising prospects. The physical principles underlying chemo-optical waveguide sensors are discussed with the accent on linear evanescent field sensors. The role of the chemo-optical transduction layer is emphasized. Restriction of the freedom of design by technological uncertainties is briefly dealt with. The structure of a complete micro-sensing system is discussed, and illustrated by presenting various designs of chemo-optical sensors based on Surface PlasmonResonance.
