Silicon Waveguide Sensors for Carbon Dioxide Gas Sensing in the Mid-Infrared Region

Two optical waveguide sensors based on SOS (silicon-on-sapphire) for detecting CO<sub>2</sub> are theoretically proposed. The operational wavelength is 4.23 μm, which is the maximum absorption line of CO<sub>2</sub>. The power confinement factor (η) value is over 40% and 50%,...
