“…Subsequently, distributed optical fiber SPR sensors based on polymerized film have been presented [10,11], but the additional layer reduces the energy of the surface wave interacting with the targeted medium, thus leading to a decrease in the sensitivity. Recently, people have employed fiber Bragg gratings in chromium-and gold-coated fibers to realize the distributed sense, which provides different refractive index operating ranges, but the sensor sensitivity is relatively low [12,13].To summarize, the main factors that affect the resonance wavelength (dynamic range) include the incident angle, metal type, metal film thickness, substrate (prism or fiber core) refractive index, modulated layer refractive index, and thickness, among other factors. For the incident angle factor, normally, it is not feasible to change the incident angle in a fiber structure [8,14,15].…”
