Photonic integrated circuit devices can be used as refractometric opto-fluidic sensors to detect the presence of analytes in solution at low concentrations. In this work, we investigate the refractive index sensitivity of silicon nitride…
This paper describes the spherical concave mirror method for measuring the index of refraction of transparent liquids. We derived the refractive index equation using Snell's law and the small-angle approximation. We also verified the…
On-chip measurement of thermo-optic coefficient (TOC) of samples along with on-chip temperature measurements can be used to compensate for thermal fluctuation induced noise in refractometry using integrated photonic sensors. In this article…
In imaging-based studies of flow around solid objects, it is useful to have materials that are refractive-index-matched to the surrounding fluid. However, materials currently in use are usually rigid and matched to liquids that are either…
Optical reflection microscopy is one of the main imaging tools to visualize graphene microstructures. Here is reported a novel method that employs refractive index optimization in an optical reflection microscope, which greatly improves the…
Applications of negative index materials (NIM) presently are severely limited by absorption. Next to improvements of metamaterial designs, it has been suggested that dense gases of atoms could form a NIM with negligible losses. In such…
We describe here how to apply the three dimensional imaging technique of refrecative index matched scanning to hydrogel spheres. Hydrogels are water based materials with a low refractive index, which allows for index matching with…
A thorough analysis of the refractive index of eleven 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ionic liquids with three different anions, tetrafluoroborate bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, and trifluoromethanesulfonate, is reported. Refractive…
We theoretically expanded the capabilities of optical sensing based on surface plasmon resonance in a prism-coupled configuration by incorporating artificial neural networks (ANNs). We used calculations modeling the situation in which an…
New high-refractive-index dielectric materials may enhance many optical technologies by enabling efficient manipulation of light in waveguides, metasurfaces, and nanoscale resonators. Van der Waals materials are particularly promising due…
For a number of optical applications, it is advantageous to precisely tune the refractive index of a liquid. Here, we harness a well-established concept in optics for this purpose. The Kramers-Kronig relation provides physical connection…
The exponentially growing market of electrochemical energy storage devices requires substitution of flammable, volatile, and toxic electrolytes. The use of Water in salt solutions (WiSE) regarded as green electrolyte might be of interest…
We demonstrate aqueous refractive index sensing with 15 to 30 {\mu}m diameter silicon nitride microdisk resonators to detect small concentrations of Li salt. A dimpled-tapered fiber is used to couple 780 nm visible light to the microdisks,…
In this paper, we will try to explain the method of theoretical estimation of index of refraction of an assymetric organic Electro-Optic compound called MNA or 2,methyl,4,nitro-aniline. It is transparent in a wide range between 500nm-2000nm…
The detection of spatial or temporal variations in very thin samples has important applications in the biological sciences. For example, cellular membranes exhibit changes in lipid composition and order, which in turn modulate their…
The refractive indices of nano-crystalline thin films of Tin (IV) Sulphide (SnS) were investigated here. The experimental data conformed well with the single oscillator model for refractive indices. Based on the this, we explain the…
We present an optomechanical device platform for characterization of optical, thermal, and rheological properties of fluids on the micron scale. A suspended silicon microdisk resonator with a vibrating mass of 100 fg and an effective…
Assumption-free mass quantification of nanofilms, nanoparticles, and (supra)molecular adsorbates in liquid environment remains a key challenge in many branches of science. Mechanical resonators can uniquely determine the mass of essentially…
Specifically, we examine concentrations from [NaCl]=1m to [NaCl]=6m, where 6.1m represents the solubility threshold of NaCl in H2O. For the water model, we employ the flexible TIP4P/$\epsilon_{Flex}$ model, which offers an enhanced…
This research focuses on a coherently driven four-level atomic medium with the aim of inducing a negative index of refraction while taking into consideration local field corrections as well as magnetoelectric cross coupling, i.e. chirality,…
