Figures & Tables
Fig. 1. (a) Setup used for the sensing experiments. The top spirals are exposed to the liquid (sensing arm), while the bottom ones are cladded and act as a reference. PIC, photonic integrated circuit; PM, phase modulator; PD, photodetector; PC, personal computer. (b) SEM micrograph of the spirals area.
