Abstract :
Here, we have developed a compact AWG sensor to perform fluorescence spectroscopy, the most commonly used technique in biochemical analysis and medical diagnosis. These measurements impose greater challenges on the optical requirements of the AWG, not least of which is efficient rejection of the excitation light. of different channels.
