【 摘 要 】

The paper presents a general theory for integrated optical (10) sensing devices of the refractometric which relates noise and device parameters to the resolution of the measurand induced modal changes. The theory is applied for length optimization of a number of integrated optical sensing The results show the crucial importance of loss for the maximum attainable resolution of a given The presented theory is illustrated with numerical examples.
