We have used an inexpensive and repeatable method for integrating the grating to the silicon cantilever with a microfabrication compatible process. The sensitivity of the method can be further increased by integrating the detection circuitry onto the cantilever substrate. We believe that this is a promising method for sensing applications which provide a simple yet sensitive measurement technique using microcantilevers.EnglishIntegrated opticsGratingsOptical couplingOptical waveguidesOptical sensorsHolographyAtom opticsAtomic force microscopyOptical microscopyHolographic optical componentsAn optical microcantilever with integrated grating couplerConference Paper10.1109/CLEOE-EQEC.2009.5192614
