Abstract:Photonic lab-on-a-chip portable platforms have proved to be very sensitive, rapid in analysis and easy-to-use. However, they still rely on a bulk light source to operate, thus hindering the actual portability and potential for commercial realization. In the present paper we have proposed a design for a light emitting structure that could be easily implemented on chip. The design consists of a Si 3 N 4 strip waveguide on SiO 2 substrate, with an active material that emits light as top and lateral cladding. The … Show more
