Abstract
An implantable optical sensor () comprising a substrate () and at least one optical microstructure () for evanescent field sensing integrated with the substrate (), the at least one optical microstructure () being positioned to form an optical interaction area () on a part of a surface () of the substrate (), the optical assembly () further comprising a thin protective layer () covering at least the optical interaction area (), the thin protective layer () being in a predetermined material with corrosion-protection characteristics and having a predetermined thickness, so as not to affect the evanescent field sensing.
