In this investigation, etched-fibers are coated by 2D layers such as Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), Molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) and composition of graphene and graphene oxide (G/GO) to modify humidity sensing. The relative differentiation of attenuations (RDA) in presence of relative humidity (RH) is measured by Optical Loss Test Set at two standard-wavelengths-telecommunication (1310 nm and 1550 nm). Results show that the etched single-mode fiber (ESMF) coated with G/GO has relatively high and one by one function for RDA versus RH (more than 30%). Also, its sensitivity and variance are reasonable. The MoSe2 based sensor is applicable at humidity below 30% because of higher RDA. However, it is not useful at humidity more than 30% due to the absence of one by one function for RDA versus RH. Besides, ESMF coated with MoS2 has indistinctive behavior and is not useful as a humidity sensor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
