Air-guiding in solid-core optical waveguides: A solution for on-chip trace gas spectroscopy

Optical waveguides suspended in air are capable of beating free-space laser beams in light-analyte interaction even without complex dispersion engineering. This phenomenon was predicted more than 20 years ago, yet never observed ...
