A 5×5 ultracompact arrayed waveguide grating multiplexer based on 500×250 nm Si nanowire waveguides is designed and fabricated by using the technologies of E-beam writing and amorphous-Si deposition. The mea- sured channel spacing is about 1.5 nm (close to the design value) and the channel crosstalk is about –8 dB.展开更多

The relationship between the physical parameters such as geometry sizes and relative refractive index in AWG multi/demultiplexer and the optical signal transmission characteristics are discussed. This theoretical study can be used for optimizing the design and improving the performance of the AWG multi/demultiplexer.展开更多

This proposed BPE array device consists of 15 units, each consisting of six sensing cells and two reporting cells patterned using hydrophobic wax. A hairpin structure DNA assembled on the cathodes of BPEs hybridizes with Pt nanoparticles （NPs） labeled probe DNA in the presence of complementary target DNA. The introduction of Pt NPs catalyzes the reduction of dissolved 02 at cathodes and induces an enhanced ECL signal from Ru（bpy）32＋/tripropylamine （TPrA） at the anodes of BPEs. The dissolved 02 lost in reduction reaction could be promptly replenished due to the relatively large contact area of the paper-based cells with air, which ensures the stability of ECL signal. This obtained paper-based BPE array sensor showed excellent performances for the multiplexed analysis of the syphilis （Treponema pallidum） gene, the immunodeficiency virus gene （HIV） and hepatitis B virus gene （HBV）.展开更多
