Tilted Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor with Graphene Oxide Coating for Humidity Sensing

In this study, we propose a tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) humidity sensor fabricated using the phase mask method to produce a TFBG that was then etched with five different diameters of 20, 35, 50, 55 and 60 μm, after which piezoelectric inkjet technology was used to coat the grating with graphene oxide. According to the experimental results, the diameter of 20 μm yielded the best sensitivit...

Optical Fibre Sensors Based on UV Inscribed Excessively Tilted Fibre Grating

Polarimetric multi-mode tilted fiber grating sensors.

The polarimetric sensing characteristics of multi-mode-fiber based tilted fiber Bragg gratings (MMF-TFBG) have been analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. The larger diameter fiber core and graded index core/cladding profile enable the tilted gratings to excite multiple high-order core modes with significantly different polarization dependence and to form a well-defined "comb" of spectrally ...

Simple and compact reflective refractometer based on tilted fiber Bragg grating inscribed in thin-core fiber.

A simple and compact reflective refractometer based on a tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) inscribed in an ultra-high photon-sensitive thin-core fiber is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The reflective refractometer utilizes a short piece of thin-core fiber containing one TFBG to ensure the recoupling of cladding modes. The reflection spectra occur in two well-defined wavelength bands ...

Sensitivity Enhancement of Graphene-Based Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensor Using Germanium Nanowires Grating

In this study we proposed a new surface plasmon resonance (SPR) configuration for enhancement of biosensor sensitivity with high absorbing molecules on the sensor surface. The proposed SPR structure consists of a germanium nanowires grating coated with three graphene layers while the addition of titanium layer between gold and fused silica (substrate) prevents the gold oxidation. For transverse...
