BRAGG-GRATING-BASED PHOTONIC STRAIN AND TEMPERATURE SENSOR FOILS REALIZED USING IMPRINTING AND OPERATING AT VERY NEAR INFRARED WAVELENGTHS

Bragg-Grating-Based Photonic Strain and Temperature Sensor Foils Realized Using Imprinting and Operating at Very Near Infrared Wavelengths

Thin and flexible sensor foils are very suitable for unobtrusive integration with mechanical structures and allow monitoring for example strain and temperature while minimally interfering with the operation of those structures.Electrical strain gages have long been used for this purpose, but optical strain sensors based on Bragg gratings are gainin

Structural enhancement of ZnO on SiO2 for photonic applications

Multi-layer thin films are often the basis of photonic devices.Zinc oxide (ZnO) with its excellent optoelectronic properties orange zinger tomato can serve as a high quality emitter in structures like microdisks or photonic crystals.Here, we present a detailed study on the enhancement of the structural properties of low-temperature MBE grown ZnO on
