Photonic crystal fiber sensors have potential application in environmental monitoring,
industry, biomedicine, food preservation, and many more. These sensors work based on …

This paper provides an up‐to‐date overview on the use of microstructured optical fibers
(MOFs) in chemical sensing during the last ten years, more specifically, applications in liquid …

We report the first experimental demonstration of a humidity insensitive polymer optical fiber
Bragg grating (FBG), as well as the first FBG recorded in a TOPAS polymer optical fiber in …

We have developed a fluorescence-based fiber-optical biosensor, which can selectively
detect different antibodies in serial at preselected positions inside a single piece of fiber. The …

We present experimentally feasible designs of a dual-core microstructured polymer optical
fiber (mPOF), which can act as a highly sensitive, label-free, and selective biosensor. An …

We propose and demonstrate a novel surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-sensing approach
by using the fundamental mode beam based on a twin-core fiber (TCF). Although normally …

A porous-core photonic crystal fiber based on a cyclic olefin homopolymer (Zeonex) is
proposed; it shows high birefringence, high core power fraction, low losses, and near-zero …

A new sensitivity-enhanced refractive index (RI) sensor based on photonic crystal fiber Mach–
Zehnder interferometer (PCF-MZI) was proposed and experimentally demonstrated. It was …

A temperature-insensitive micro Fabry–Pérot (FP) cavity based on simplified hollow-core
(SHC) photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is demonstrated. Such a device is fabricated by splicing a …

In recent years, photonic sensors have seen a massive development because of the
increasing demand of sensing applications in healthcare, defence, security, automotive …
