Abstract
A device for detecting gases or particles includes a light source capable of emitting a light beam, an interaction cavity including first and second reflective walls substantially parallel with each other, a plurality of monomode optical waveguides each having a first end of width loptically coupled to the light source and a second end of width l, greater than the width l, optically coupled to a first end of the interaction cavity, each optical waveguide including in its second end of width la diffraction grating having a pitch P in particular chosen as a function of a concentration C and a parameter α of interaction with the light beam of a type of gas or particle to detect; and a detector coupled to a second end of the interaction cavity.
