A Humidity Sensor Based on a Singlemode-Side Polished Multimode–Singlemode Optical Fibre Structure Coated with Gelatin

Surface plasmon resonance biosensor based on gold-coated side-polished hexagonal structure photonic crystal fiber.

The refractive index sensing characteristics of the side-polished photonic crystal fiber (PCF) surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor are detailed investigated in this paper. We used the finite element method (FEM) to study the influences of the side-polished depth, air hole size, lattice constant, and the refractive index (RI) of the PCF material on sensing performance. The simulation results ...

Strain and temperature sensitivity of a singlemode polymer optical fibre

We report experimental measurements of the strain and temperature sensitivity of the optical phase in a singlemode polymer optical fibre. These values were obtained by measuring optical path length change using a Mach-Zender interferometer.

Optical Fiber Relative Humidity Sensor Based on a FBG with a Di-Ureasil Coating

In this work we proposed a relative humidity (RH) sensor based on a Bragg grating written in an optical fiber, associated with a coating of organo-silica hybrid material prepared by the sol-gel method. The organo-silica-based coating has a strong adhesion to the optical fiber and its expansion is reversibly affected by the change in the RH values (15.0-95.0%) of the surrounding environment, all...
