PHOTONIC CRYSTAL PRESSURE SENSORTech for Transfer TTO 18-12-2015 The present invention provides a microscale pressure sensor that exhibits high sensitivity in a small form factor. The sensor is a bridged device in which a photonic crystal waveguide, surrounded by a photonic crystal slab, is suspended over a dielectric substrate. Under applied pressure, the photonic crystal waveguide is deflected toward the substrate, causing a decrease in optical transmission across the waveguide due to the coupling of the evanescent field of the guided mode to the dielectric substrate. The waveguide can be coupled to a photonic crystal microcavity, which increases evanescent coupling. This inventive design enables a higher sensitivity and better tolerance to manufacturing imperfections. Photonic Crystals Waveguides Tell me more |

PHOTONIC CRYSTAL SPECTROMETERTech for Transfer TTO 18-12-2015 This invention presents a new and disruptive technology for spectroscopic analysis involving an optical waveguide coupled to a photonic crystal. The use of photonic crystals to spatially resolve incoming optical energy, such as according to wavelength, can drastically reduce the complexity, production cost, or size of optical spectrometers, and can be applicable to any or all wavelengths detectable by a coupled optical detector. The photonic crystal spectrometer can be both small and inexpensive. This can allow entrance into many niche markets that otherwise might not exist. One particular such application can include color feedback and auto-tuning for printers. Spectroscopy Photonic Crystals Tell me more |

BISTABLE PHOTONIC CRYSTAL WITHOUT EXTERNAL POWER CONSUMPTIONTech for Transfer TTO 18-12-2015 The present invention provides the way to create a photonic crystal with fast response time and wide tunable range of wavelength, and meanwhile, remain at a stable state without external power consumption. The photonic crystal has a plurality of voids and each surface of void has an hydrophobic film. When the photonic crystal is immersed in a predetermined liquid, the crystal has two stable states. The first stable state is to fill the plurality of voids with the predetermined liquid, and the second stable state is to exclude the liquid from the plurality of voids. Owing to the energy barrier between the first and second stable states, the photonic crystal can remain at either of the two states without external power consumption.
