Strip-loaded Mach–Zehnder interferometer for absolute refractive index sensing

Abstract This paper presents the design, fabrication, and characterization of a Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) on a strip-loaded platform specifically developed for the measurement of refractive index variations in liquids. A novel approach of large opening in the sensing region enhances the sens...
