Abstract

Silicon photonics can address a variety of applications, from datacom and biosensing to lidars. Recently, this technology has been explored for gas sensing. Detection and identification of odors remains a critical challenge in diverse areas such as air quality, food spoilage, or personal well-being. In this work, we present an olfactory sensor based on an array of 64 biofunctionalized Mach-Zehnder interferometers integrated on a silicon nitride platform. The ability to analyze odors at ppm level is demonstrated for several volatile organic compounds.
