Abstract
The ability to real-time sense the dynamic reactions is particularly critical in a wide range of applications, such as material formation process and biochemistry development. In this paper, a fiber-optic sensing platform based on a tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) with multiresonance combs is proposed to real-time monitor the spectral dynamics in particle suspension. Utilizing the dense comb-like resonance spectrum of the TFBG, dynamic temporal evolution is fully observed by tracking the responses in liquid, which mainly progresses through the first phase dominated by bulk refractive index (RI), then transitions to the second phase modulated by the gradual scattering effect, and eventually to an equilibrium state. This method enables detection of bulk refractive index changes and particle induced scattering effects, where the subtle changes are successfully captured continuously in an evolving suspension. This work highlights the unique capability of multiresonant fiber grating to resolve real-time monitoring in particulate suspensions, paving the way for applications in process control under complex liquid environments.
