A silicon oxynitride channel waveguide based evanescent-field optical transducer is presented for lab-on-chip application. The optical biosensor detects luminescent bioanalytes infiltrated within a reactor well realized across the waveguide. As a main novelty, the sensing mechanism proposed makes use of the evanescent-field propagating in the waveguide to both excite and to collect the fluorescent...
