“…The first taper-based sensor was used as an optical refractometer. In 1984, Kumar et al [1] presented a taper in multimode fiber as an optical intensity refractometer. In 1986, Boucouvalas et al [2] studied the response of taper-based couplers to the refractive index of the external medium.…”

“…Optical fiber RI sensors have been gaining interest due to its high sensitivity, compact size and capability for on-site, real-time, remote and distributed sensing. Over the years several optical fiber refractometers were demonstrated based on fiber tapers [3], etched or side polished fiber Bragg gratings [4,5], Long-Period grating (LPG) [6] and surface Plasmon resonance (SPR) [7] among others. SPR based devices are the most diffused ones, they are very attractive because they have some of the highest sensitivities ever achieved [8].…”
