Light-sheet skew rays sensing platform based on microstructuring of coreless multimode fiber
Given the increasing demands for quality assurance in the food industry, a significant challenge emerges in the form of expensive integration of food sensors into packaging. This integration is crucial for strengthening food safety measures and ensuring the impeccable quality of food products. Official laboratory food safety testing heavily relies on expensive and bulky equipment. This article presents a new chemical sensing platform and a comparative study of in-house built novel designs for a robust multimode chemical sensor head probed by highly sensitive light-sheet skew rays for addressing cost and footprint issues. The sensing mechanism is the interaction between evanescent field mediated by refined skew rays propagating through a structured coreless multimode fiber and external chemicals, resulting in probe light absorption. The sensitivity is enhanced by the controlled excitation of skew rays using a light sheet and four specially engineered coreless multimode fiber structure, including uniform, tapered, microstub and microbubble designs. The sensitivity was demonstrated to be as high as 0.046 (dB/cm) / dB(1 ng/ml) and the limit of detection as low as 1.028 ng/ml for the microbubble structure. The results of our research pave the groundwork for a new range of chemical sensors suitable for food safety monitoring.
期刊介绍:
Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research is an open access journal dedicated to the research, design, development, and application of bio-sensing and sensing technologies. The editors will accept research papers, reviews, field trials, and validation studies that are of significant relevance. These submissions should describe new concepts, enhance understanding of the field, or offer insights into the practical application, manufacturing, and commercialization of bio-sensing and sensing technologies.
The journal covers a wide range of topics, including sensing principles and mechanisms, new materials development for transducers and recognition components, fabrication technology, and various types of sensors such as optical, electrochemical, mass-sensitive, gas, biosensors, and more. It also includes environmental, process control, and biomedical applications, signal processing, chemometrics, optoelectronic, mechanical, thermal, and magnetic sensors, as well as interface electronics. Additionally, it covers sensor systems and applications, µTAS (Micro Total Analysis Systems), development of solid-state devices for transducing physical signals, and analytical devices incorporating biological materials.
