A fiber optic sensor for measuring glucose in aqueous solutions
In this paper, the set-up of a multi-mode fiber optic sensor for measuring glucose in aqueous solutions is investigated and evaluated. The basis of this sensor is based on the Fresnel Reflection. In this setup, a helium-neon laser is used as a light source, a fiber optic probe, photocell as detector and a digital multimeter. The statistical analysis of the recorded data shows a highly linear be...
متن کاملFeasibility of Ultra-Thin Fiber-Optic Dosimeters for Radiotherapy Dosimetry
In this study, prototype ultra-thin fiber-optic dosimeters were fabricated using organic scintillators, wavelength shifting fibers, and plastic optical fibers. The sensor probes of the ultra-thin fiber-optic dosimeters consisted of very thin organic scintillators with thicknesses of 100, 150 and 200 μm. These types of sensors cannot only be used to measure skin or surface doses but also provide...
متن کاملFiber optic sensor for localized vibration measurement
Structural analysis demands the localized vibration study of metallic, ceramic and composite structures. This paper reports the design and development of a vibration sensor to measure the instantaneous amplitude and frequency of vibrations of structures over very small-localized surface area. Optical fiber based displacement sensor is extended as a vibration sensor, based on the consideration t...
متن کاملBuried Fiber Optic Intrusion Sensor
Buried Fiber Optic Intrusion Sensor. (May 2004) Eric William Maier, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Henry Taylor A distributed fiber optic intrusion sensor capable of detecting intruders from the pressure of their weight on the earth’s surface was investigated in the laboratory and in field tests. The presence of an intruder above or in proximity to the buried sensor...
متن کاملFiber optic angular displacement sensor
A reflective type fiber optic angular displacement sensor has recently been developed, which consists of a light source, an optical isolator, a four-port single-mode fiber bidirectional coupler, and a light intensity detection system (two silicon photodetectors and ananalog divider). By using a normal He-Ne laser with &2% stability in light intensity, we have achieved an angle resolution of 10e...
