In this paper, two different pH sensors based on the deposition of nanometric scale
polymeric films onto the surface of a long-period fiber grating (LPFG) have been studied and …

In this work an optical fiber tunable filter based on lossy guided-mode resonances (LGMR) is
proposed. It consists of a multilayer structure deposited onto the surface of a plastic cladding …

We present recent studies in the fundamentals and applications of the relaxor ferroelectric
polymers, ie, Poly (vinylidene fluoride-trifluroethylene-chlorofluoroethylene)(P (VDF-TrFE …

This paper presents the development and characterization of a fiber optic transducer based
on lossy mode resonances (LMRs) to monitor current transformers in high voltage networks …

A very large electro-optic effect has been observed in relaxor ferroelectric poly (vinylidene
fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorofluoroethylene) terpolymer. By adding a small amount of zinc …

The incremental deposition of a thin overlay on the cladding of a long-period fiber grating
(LPFG) induces important resonance wavelength shifts in the transmission spectrum. The …

In this work, the spectral characteristics of non-uniform symmetrically ring shaped coatings
deposited on long-period fiber gratings (LPFGs) have been theoretically and experimentally …

Considering the increasingly wide application of optical fiber sensors, this article aims to
present an alternative form of interrogation without the use of an optical spectrum analyzer …

A review of optical fiber sensors based on nanostructured coatings fabricated by means of
the layer-by-layer electrostatic-self assembly (ESA) method is presented here. The …

This chapter attempts to approach the fibre optic humidity sensing technology to scientists
unfamiliar with the field. A general review of this type of sensors is presented here with …
