Abstract
Firstly, we describe the theory of multimode interference and we model the sensor response to the change of the sensing layer refractive index. Then, the sensing material is described and characterised regarding optical and sensing properties. Finally, the prototype device is characterised. A linear response to relative humidity is obtained and it is shown that sensitivity can be tuned using the MMI design technique.
