Summarizes the state of the art in waveguide-based chemical sensing and biosensing, drawing mostly on literature published between 1992 and 1995, somewhat to the neglect of the historical dimension of the field. Discusses the concepts of ionic and molecular recognition, optical chemoreception, and optical signal processing and optical electrical transduction. Applications are described in a separate section to be expanded for future editions; currently they include clinical diagnostics, in-vivo monitoring, environmental monitoring, process control, and networks.
