Abstract
A swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) system with the interferometer engine being a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) has been developed. Furthermore, an Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG), representing a grating on a PIC, for spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) has been integrated in a fiber-based OCT system. With measured sensitivities of ~87 dB (SS-OCT) and ~80 dB (SD-OCT), scattering tissue imaging becomes feasible for OCT-on-chip systems. In this study, we present two OCT-on-chip systems and first results of biological tissue imaging in-vivo and ex-vivo.
