A guided mode resonance (GMR) sensor assembly and system are provided. The GMR sensor includes a waveguide structure configured for operation at or near one or more leaky modes, a receiver for input light from a source of light onto the waveguide structure to cause one or more leaky TE and TM resonant modes and a detector for changes in one or more of the phase, waveshape and/or magnitude of each of a TE resonance and a TM resonance to permit distinguishing between first and second physical states of said waveguide structure or its immediate environment.

Mar 2010 7,689,086 Resonant leaky-mode optical devices and associated methods
Optical devices with versatile spectral attributes are provided that are implemented with one or more modulated and homogeneous layers to realize leaky-mode resonance operation and corresponding versatile spectral-band design. The first and/or higher multiple evanescent diffraction orders are applied to excite one or more leaky modes. The one- or two-dimensional periodic structure, fashioned by proper distribution of materials within each period, can have a resulting symmetric or asymmetric profile to permit a broadened variety of resonant leaky-mode devices to be realized. Thus, the attributes of the optical device permit, among other things, adjacent, distinct resonance frequencies or wavelengths to be produced, convenient shaping of the reflection and transmission spectra for such optical device to be accomplished, and the wavelength resonance locations to be precisely controlled so as to affect the extent to which the leaky modes interact with each other. Further, the profile asymmetry allows for the precise spectral spacing at interactive leaky modes so as to provide greater flexibility in optical device design.

Oct 2000 6,154,480 Vertical-cavity laser and laser array incorporating guided-mode resonance effects and method for making the same
A new class of vertical-cavity lasers (VCLs) is disclosed. Conventional VCLs contain an active region enclosed by Bragg-mirror stacks of 30-100 quarter-wave layers. The new VCLs can be fabricated without Bragg mirrors by replacing them with efficient diffractive (guided-mode resonance (GMR)) mirrors with much fewer layers, for example, two or three layers. This application provides optical power flow across and along the VCL gain region, thereby greatly increasing the laser efficiency and reducing the threshold mirror reflectance needed for lasing, relative to conventional VCLs. Theoretical and experimental results show that GMR mirrors exhibit high reflectance (theoretically, 100%; experimentally, in excess of 90%) in a narrow spectral band with well-defined polarization states. When incorporated in VCLs, the GMR mirrors yield single-mode, narrow-line, highly-polarized output light. The GMR-VCL is independent of any particular material system. An example fabrication process of GaAs-based VCLs includes molecular-beam epitaxial growth of the basic planar structure and multiple-quantum-well (InGaAs/GaAs for 980 nm wavelength) active layers, interferometric recording of the GMR grating, lithographic and reactive-ion-etch definition of individual VCL elements, and metallization and contacting. GMR-VCL arrays can also be fabricated; the diffractive element will phase-lock the individual lasers to produce exceptionally high optical power and coherence. GMR-VCL technology holds high potential to provide low-cost, high-speed sources for fiber optic communications and other applications.

EAGER: Properties of ultra-sparse resonant photonic lattices sponsored by National Science Foundation (NSF) - $103,489 PIThe project focus is theoretical and experimental study of ultra-sparse photonic lattices.Accordingly, we will design, fabricate, and characterize wideband resonant reflectors and polarizers that require extremely small amounts of matter in their embodiments. Shown here is the remarkable and counterintuitive fact that a nanoscale periodic silicon layer that is 95% empty space can reflect light at 100% efficiency across a 100-nm-wide spectral band. This simple device exhibits impressive polarizing performance as well. We call these elements ultra-sparse reflectors and polarizers. We propose to investigate this device class applying one-dimensional (1D) periodic nanostructures. The devices will be fashioned in nearly lossless semiconductors and dielectrics as membranes surrounded by air or glass host media. Initial focus is on spectral operation within the 400-2400 nm region. We will fabricate representative devices as proof-of-concept prototypes, measure their spectral response, and compare with theoretical predictions.read more...

Nanopatterned Resonant Perfect Absorbers sponsored by Alion Science and Technology Corporation - $98,000 PIThe objective of this research is to develop a new class of nanophotonics devices that approximate perfect absorbers while remaining materially sparse.This research will concentrate on the design, fabrication, and characterization of periodically nano-patterned metal or dielectric layers that result in near-total absorption across narrow or broad spectral ranges. To this end we will explore, three paradigms of absorbers: (a) passive coherent perfect absorbers, (b) active coherent perfect absorbers, and (c) broadband incoherent absorbers. Each of these paradigms will be explored using the following research methods: (i) Theoretical studies that include both analytical first principle models based on rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) and computational electromagnetic simulations to examine electric field dependence on the geometry, wavelength, and material system chosen; (ii) Fabrication methods that will yield the required nanopatterns over large areas with the designed resolution in a reliable and repeatable manner. This step will also encompass the choice of appropriate materials for the wavelengths under consideration; (iii) Characterization of the fabricated laboratory prototypes to analyze efficacy of the devices using appropriate figures-of-merit such as noise suppression coefficient and scattering cross-section.read more...

Phase II: Wavelength Stabilized High-power Diode Lasers for Alkali Atom Pumping sponsored by Photodigm, Inc - $275,000 PIOne primary task will be modification of the reactive-ion etch (RIE) system (Plasmalab 80 Plus, Oxford Instruments) for active process endpoint detection.This RIE system is located in the Nanolithography Laboratory belonging to the UT-Arlington Nanophotonics Device Group and can thus be modified as needed. It has current endpoint detection capability, which is based on the interference occurring when the laser light illuminates a device consisting of a substrate and thin semi-transparent layer as shown in Fig. 1. The combined reflected light varies with changes in thickness of the thin layer, and this signal is used to determine the endpoint. The exact GMRF resonant wavelength is a function of several physical parameters including grating period, fill factor, and etch depth. The grating period and fill factor for a given device are essentially fixed during the holographic lithography step, leaving the grating etch depth as the main parameter that can be varied during the remainder of the GMRF fabrication process. By using active endpoint detection during the grating etch process, we can achieve parameters of the fabricated GMRF that are very close to those of the original design. The resonant elements under development are sensitive to parametric variations, and these variations can shift the location of resonance peak significantly. For example, for the model structure shown in Fig. 2, the resonance wavelength shifts by 0.13 nm for a grating depth variation of ?d = 10 nm. Therefore, we propose several methods to overcome this resonance wavelength sensitivity and achieve functional resonance devices for the intended laser applications. We address these as follows. 1. Robust design via inverse numerical methods 2. RIE etch control using continuous spectral analysis 3. RIE etch control using a laser at the exact correct wavelengthread more...

Optimization of GMR Biosensors sponsored by Resonant Sensors Inc. (RSI) - $30,000 PIThe objective of this project is design and optimization of the next generation of GMR sensors.This will be followed by fabrication and evaluation of the most promising designs. To achieve an optimal sensor, several issues must be considered. Among them, sensitivity is a key factor; we maximize the resonance peak shift per unit of change in measurand. In the spectral domain, we define the sensitivity S=??/?t in pm/nm where ? is the wavelength and t refers to the thickness of an adhered layer of biomaterial. If we measure a refractive index change (?n) of a solution, we express sensitivity as S=??/?n with units of pm/RIU where RIU denotes refractive index unit. In case of angular-shift based detection with fixed input wavelength, which is of principal interest in this project, we define the corresponding sensitivities as S=??/?t and S=??/?n where ?? is the angular shift in degrees. Moreover, in addition to high sensitivity, the sensors must be easily manufacturable. Thus, we will also design for manufacturability, avoiding difficult materials and ultra-small features, aiming for a robust device that is routinely reproducible. We will carry out comprehensive optimization relative to sensor parameters for operation in the near IR spectral region (current laser has ??????nm?. These parameters include refractive index (nf) and thickness (df) of cover film, grating thickness (dg), and grating fill factor (F). Since dual polarization is of most use, we will optimize the sensors such that both TE and TM polarization resonances exhibit high sensitivity simultaneously. Sensor response will be evaluated using typical changes in refractive index (~10-6 to 10-2) of base solution and sensitivity and S=??/?n computed. For thickness variations, we will model the adherence of antigens of typical size in the range of 0.1-10 nm in the range 5-10 nm that are linked to the sensor with silane layers typically 5-10 nm thick (see Fig. 1), computing S=??/?t for each case. We will design the sensors to maximize detection sensitivity in both spectral and angular readout configurations.read more...

3D Meta-Optics for High Power Lasers sponsored by University of North Carolina - $436,913 PIThe Nanophotonics Device Group will design edge filters using particle swarm optimization (PSO) codes to optimize their qualities to meet spec.The goal is to design sharp edge filter (ideally with ~2 nm transition band) using guided-mode resonance (GMR) concepts and associated structures. The spectral band of interest is 2.0-4.0 ?m. Single-layer and multilayer resonant elements with two- and four- part period profiles will be designed using low-loss dielectrics. Devices with 1D and 2D patterning will be designed. Similarly, we will design GMR devices (filters, mirrors, polarizers) with high-quality pre-specified spectral expressions (narrowband reflection, narrowband transmission, wideband high reflection, wave plates) using PSO to minimize internal field strengths. We will compute all internal fields in detail with our codes at all points within the device. Moreover, we will design GMR elements for polarization control. Preliminary results on resonant retarders operating in reflection and transmission show new phase-control capabilities. These half-wave and quarter-wave retarders may have uses in the high-energy laser systems under development in this project. Finally, we will contribute to fabrication of large-area structures, as needed, using an existing 266-nm-wavelength interferometric nanolithography system (periods down to 200 nm and area up to 100 cm2).read more...
