Microstructured optical fiber refractive index sensor.
We describe a dual-core microstructured optical fiber designed for refractive index sensing of fluids. We show that by using the exponential dependence of intercore coupling on analyte refractive index, both large range and high sensitivity can be achieved in the one device. We also show that selective filling of the microstructure with analyte can increase the device sensitivity by approximate...
متن کاملBiconcave micro-optofluidic lens with low-refractive-index liquids.
One of the current problems of micro-optofluidics is the choice of a suitable liquid with a high refractive index (RI). We report the use of a low-RI liquid in a biconcave liquid-core liquid-cladding lens for focusing light. For the characterization of the lens, a telescope system was constructed from polydimethylsiloxane lenses to collimate and expand a light beam emitted from an optical fiber...
متن کاملFiber Optic Surface Plasmon Resonance based Refractive Index Sensor
In the present study, a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) based fiber optic sensor is proposed. The extreme sensitivity of SPR modes on the surrounding refractive index has been exploited to make the sensor. The optical fiber is coated with gold film which supports the propagation of surface plasmons. The SPR dip in the transmission spectrum is observed and its shift with varying refractive indic...
متن کاملMultimode interference tapered fiber refractive index sensors.
Real-time monitoring of the fabrication process of tapering down a multimode-interference-based fiber structure is presented. The device is composed of a pure silica multimode fiber (MMF) with an initial 125 μm diameter spliced between two single-mode fibers. The process allows a thin MMF with adjustable parameters to obtain a high signal transmittance, arising from constructive interference am...
متن کاملMultiwavelength optical fiber refractive index profiling
Fourier transform spectroscopy and interference microscopy are combined to provide the world's first multi-wavelength optical fiber refractive index profile (RIP) measurements. The RIP and its spectral dependence are obtained with submicron spatial resolution across an octave stretching from about 500 nm to the 1 micron operating band of Yb-doped fiber lasers and amplifiers. In contrast to comm...
