High-quality optical fibers can be produced now at a low cost and large quantity, and this
has further promoted the development of fiber-optic (chemical) sensors. After over 30 years …

This review presents an overview of “Lab on Fiber” technologies and devices with special
focus on the design and development of advanced fiber optic nanoprobes for biological …

Thanks to the peculiarities of optical fiber and its ability to be combined with
nanotechnology, precise and accurate measurements of the changes in optical properties …

During the last decades, both governments and companies have been committed to the
continuous checking of biological parameters, which can prevent extra costs to …

In this paper, a novel optical fiber temperature sensor based on surface plasmon resonance
(SPR) is presented. The sensor consists of multimode fiber-photonic crystal fiber-multimode …

A kind of dual-parameter sensor based on magnetic-fluid-coated nonadiabatic tapered
microfiber (NTF) cascaded with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is proposed and experimentally …

Simultaneous measurement of pressure and temperature in seawater is realized based on
polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) sealed microfiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) …

A Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based fiberoptic refractive index (RI) sensor is
constructed by uniformly tapering standard single mode fiber (SMF) for RI measurement. A …

Nucleic acid (NA) is a widely-used biomarker for viruses. Accurate quantification of NA can
provide a reliable basis for point-of-care diagnosis and treatment. Here, we propose a tilted …

An optically semiconductor metamaterial sensor for solute concentration sensing is
designed based on plasmonically induced transparency (PIT) effect. The concentration of …
