Tapered POF-SPR sensor for dual-channel measurement of refractive index and temperature
Temperature is a key parameter that affects the performance of optical fiber sensors. In this work, we designed a tapered surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor based on plastic optical fiber (POF), and the sensor’ s sensitivity to liquid refractive index (RI) and temperature was investigated separately. The results show that when the taper ratio of the sensor is 2.80, its sensitivity can reach 2890.536 nm/RIU within the RI range of 1.333 ∼ 1.433. After coating a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) temperature-sensitive film on the Ag film in the sensing area, within the temperature ranges of 0 ∼ 96 °C and − 40 ∼ 0 °C, the temperature sensitivities reach −0.906 nm/°C and −1.807 nm/°C, respectively, and demonstrating high linearity and cyclic stability. We further developed a dual-channel sensor for simultaneous measurement of RI and temperature. The results demonstrate that within the RI range of 1.333 ∼ 1.373 and temperature range of 10 ∼ 60 °C, the sensitivities for RI and temperature are 1845.603 nm/RIU and −0.891 nm/°C, respectively. The proposed dual-channel plastic optical fiber SPR sensor offers advantages such as low cost, high sensitivity, low crosstalk, and simple fabrication, making it promising for research and application in fields such as biology and medicine.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
