Abstract

Systems for an integrated photonic responsive material sensor are described herein. In certain embodiments, a system includes a carrier wafer that includes a cavity formed in the carrier wafer. The carrier wafer also includes a responsive waveguide coupled to the cavity, the responsive waveguide formed from responsive material responsive to a force by shifting a resonance frequency of point defects in the responsive material in response to the force, wherein a pump light is directed to the responsive waveguide to prepare the responsive waveguide to absorb a probe light when exposed to a radio frequency at the point defect resonance frequency. Additionally, the system includes components coupled to the carrier wafer, wherein the components include a probe light source that generates the probe light, wherein the components are positioned in relation to the carrier wafer to couple the probe light into the cavity.
