Enhanced Evanescent Confinement in Multiple-Slot Waveguides and Its Application in Biochemical Sensing

The interaction of light propagating in the wave-guiding structures with the surrounding media through its evanescent field has been used to detect biochemical activities without labeling the target molecules. By introducing multiple slots in a dielectric waveguide, we found that a much stronger eva...
