“…Although the attained maximum sensitivity is not as high as the refractive index sensors based on sophisticated MOFs [20,21,23,24], which as mentioned above demand great technical efforts for their fabrication, we aim to provide new ideas for the development of optical fiber SPP sensors. Here, alternatively, we present a sensor characterized by its simplified microstructure based on the long-range surface plasmon excitation, which may be meaningful for the SPP sensor research.…”

“…For an updated review of MOF-based SPP sensors see, e.g., [13]. Considering the limitations of the internal sensing mechanism (the metal coating and analyte are placed inside the fiber), SPP sensors based on D-shaped or exposed core structures provide a possible solution to internal sensing as the SPP is in direct contact with the external medium [23,24].…”

In this paper, we propose and numerically analyze a novel design for a high sensitivity refractive index (RI) sensor based on long-range surface plasmon resonance in H-shaped microstructured optical fiber with symmetrical dielectric-metal-dielectric waveguide (DMDW). The influences of geometrical and optical characteristics of the DMDW on the sensor performance are investigated theoretically. A large RI analyte range from 1.33 to 1.39 is evaluated to study the sensing characteristics of the proposed structure. The obtained results show that the DMDW improves the coupling between the fiber core mode and the plasmonic mode. The best configuration shows 27 nm of full width at half maximum with a resolution close to 1.3 × 10 −5 nm, a high sensitivity of 7540 nm/RIU and a figure of merit of 280 RIU −1 . Additionally, the proposed device has potential for multi-analyte sensing and self-reference when dissimilar DMDWs are deposited on the inner walls of the side holes. The proposed sensor structure is simple and presents very competitive sensing parameters, which demonstrates that this device is a promising alternative and could be used in a wide range of application areas.

This paper present dual core photonic crystal fiber temperature sensor in terms of wavelength sensitivity. The high temperature coefficient liquid and plasmonic material are deposited outer layer of the PCF to make the fabrication easier than existed optical sensor. Besides, the coupling phenomenon is studied. The Matlab environment as well as the finite element method (FEM) are used to demonstrate the sensor performance. Different loss spectra with the variation of temperature has been analyzed. The simulation result shows that the proposed sensor exhibits wavelength sensitivity of 970 pm/°C and 1075 pm/°C for x-polarized light and y-polarized light respectively. Moreover, a wide range of temperature 0°C to 80°C can be detected effectively. Considering high sensitivity and wide detection range of temperature, this dual core PCF temperature sensor can be a promising candidate for the detection of the temperature of manufacturing industry, medical environment and various applications.

The development of highly-sensitive and miniaturized sensors that capable of realtime analytes detection is highly desirable. Nowadays, toxic or colorless gas detection, air pollution monitoring, harmful chemical, pressure, strain, humidity, and temperature sensors based on photonic crystal fiber (PCF) are increasing rapidly due to its compact structure, fast response and efficient light controlling capabilities. The propagating light through the PCF can be controlled by varying the structural parameters and core-cladding materials, as a result, evanescent field can be enhanced significantly which is the main component of the PCF based gas/chemical sensors. The aim of this chapter is to (1) describe the principle operation of PCF based gas/ chemical sensors, (2) discuss the important PCF properties for optical sensors, (3) extensively discuss the different types of microstructured optical fiber based gas/ chemical sensors, (4) study the effects of different core-cladding shapes, and fiber background materials on sensing performance, and (5) highlight the main challenges of PCF based gas/ chemical sensors and possible solutions.
