  • Substrate-integrated hollow waveguide sensors
    Patent number: 10408725
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided that greatly expand the utility of conventional hollow waveguide-based sensors via either straight, substrate-integrated channels or via meandering (e.g., circuitous, curved or folded optical paths) waveguide sensor designs. Full- or hybrid-integration of the meandering hollow waveguide with light source, detector, and light-guiding optics facilitates compact yet high-performance gas/vapor and/or liquid sensors of the substrate-integrated hollow waveguide sensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 29, 2012
    Date of Patent: September 10, 2019
    Assignee: Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC
    Inventors: Jerry Chance Carter, Michael P. Chrisp, Anastacia M. Manuel, Boris Mizaikoff, Andreas Wilk, Seong-Soo Kim
