Essentials for silicon photonics are lowering size and cost without affecting effectiveness for various performances. One of the effective sensing elements with smaller footprints and few step fabrication is a micro ring resonators (MRR). Using slotted waveguides and sub-wavelength gratings (SWG) in MRRs have shown higher sensitivity . Recently combination of the SWG and slotted waveguides exhibited even higher performances . In the study, we propose a sensor with slotted SWGs on straight waveguide where Bragg grating (BG) reflection condition is fulfilled.
