Abstract
The invention concerns a sensor with integrated optics, to detect chemical substances, including a double spiral interlaced with wave guides and integrated on a substrate (13) receiving the signal of a light source (14) through a first optical component (15) able to separate into two portions the light intensity emitted by the source and sending output signals onto at least one detector (17) through a second optical component (16), the first of the two guides (11) being a reference guide isolated from the influence of the substance to be measured, and the second (12) being a measuring guide affected by the substance to be measured.
