SMF temperature sensor with PDMS coated for respiratory monitoring
An optical fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer temperature sensor based on Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) sensitization is proposed and implemented. The sensor is composed of droplet-shaped single mode fiber (SMF) coated with PDMS, which utilizes the high negative thermo-optic coefficient and high thermal expansion coefficient of PDMS to enhance the sensitivity of the temperature sensor. The measurement range of this sensor is 15 °C to 85 °C, with a maximum temperature sensitivity of 0.3107nm/ °C, which is 8-time higher than the temperature sensitivity of a droplet-shaped SMF sensor without PDMS coating. The proposed temperature sensor is combined with a wearable oxygen mask to monitor the real-time respiratory status of the human body. This combination has the potential to be applied in the manufacturing of wearable medical or bio-detection devices. The sensor has the advantages of simple fabrication, stable structure, good repeatability, high time stability, and insensitivity to humidity.
期刊介绍:
Optics and Lasers in Engineering aims at providing an international forum for the interchange of information on the development of optical techniques and laser technology in engineering. Emphasis is placed on contributions targeted at the practical use of methods and devices, the development and enhancement of solutions and new theoretical concepts for experimental methods.
Optics and Lasers in Engineering reflects the main areas in which optical methods are being used and developed for an engineering environment. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers focusing on parameter optimization or computational issues are not suitable. Similarly, papers focussed on an application rather than the optical method fall outside the journal''s scope. The scope of the journal is defined to include the following:
-Optical Metrology-
Optical Methods for 3D visualization and virtual engineering-
Optical Techniques for Microsystems-
Imaging, Microscopy and Adaptive Optics-
Computational Imaging-
Laser methods in manufacturing-
Integrated optical and photonic sensors-
Optics and Photonics in Life Science-
Hyperspectral and spectroscopic methods-
Infrared and Terahertz techniques
