Abstract :
We have designed, fabricated, and characterized cascaded ring resonator on silicon on insulator, SOI, chips. This resonator configuration allows for simultaneously gathering multi-parametric information on gaseous/fluidic solutions in contact with sensors, without requiring molecular labeling.
