“…The first is an exposed-core microstructured optical fibers (ECF) that has a suspended micron-scale core partially exposed to the external environment [21][22] ( Figure 2, left), which allows consistent washing, drying and refilling of the biosensor during its use. The second type of fiber has air holes within its cross section and is known as a suspended-core microstructured optical fibers (SCF), 23 see Figure 2 right. These air holes confine light to the solid core and allow it to be guided along the length of the fiber.…”

The new agreement specifically addresses what authors can do with different versions of their manuscript -e.g. use in theses and collections, teaching and training, conference presentations, sharing with colleagues, and posting on websites and repositories. The terms under which these uses can occur are clearly identified to prevent misunderstandings that could jeopardize final publication of a manuscript (Section II, Permitted Uses by Authors). Easy Reference User Guide Posting Accepted and Published Works on Websites and Repositories:A digital file of the Accepted Work and/or the Published Work may be made publicly available on websites or repositories (e.g. the Author's personal website, preprint servers, university networks or primary employer's institutional websites, third party institutional or subject-based repositories, and conference websites that feature presentations by the Author(s) based on the Accepted and/or the Published Work) under the following conditions:• It is mandated by the Author(s)' funding agency, primary employer, or, in the case of Author(s) employed in academia, university administration.• If the mandated public availability of the Accepted Manuscript is sooner than 12 months after online publication of the Published Work, a waiver from the relevant institutional policy should be sought. If a waiver cannot be obtained, the Author(s) may sponsor the immediate availability of the final Published Work through participation in the ACS AuthorChoice program-for information about this program see http://pubs.acs.org/page/policy/authorchoice/index.html.• If the mandated public availability of the Accepted Manuscript is not sooner than 12 months after online publication of the Published Work, the Accepted Manuscript may be posted to the mandated website or repository. The following notice should be included at the time of posting, or the posting amended as appropriate: "This document is the Accepted Manuscript version of a Published Work that appeared in final form in [JournalTitle], copyright © American Chemical Society after peer review and technical editing by the publisher. To access the final edited and published work see [insert ACS Articles on Request authordirected link to Published Work, see http://pubs.acs.org/page/policy/articlesonrequest/index.html]." • The posting must be for non-commercial purposes and not violate the ACS' "Ethical Guidelines to Publication of Chemical Research" (see http://pubs.acs.org/ethics).• Regardless of any mandated public availability date of a digital file of the final Published Work, Author(s) may make this file available only via the ACS AuthorChoice Program.

“…Now d/= 0.95 is selected as an optimized value for the further investigation process. The micro-structured core PCFs help gain higher relative sensitivity and alleviate confinement loss [36]. Besides, it can be analyzed that the relative sensitivity is promoted with the enhancement of air holes diameter in the core region and decrement of pitch Λ c [30].…”

Abstract:In this paper, a hexagonal shape photonic crystal fiber (H-PCF) has been proposed as a gas sensor of which both micro-structured core and cladding are organized by circular air cavities. The reported H-PCF has a single layer circular core which is surrounded by a five-layer hexagonal cladding. The overall pretending process of the H-PCF is completed by using a full vectorial finite element method (FEM) with perfectly matched layer (PML) boundary condition. All geometrical parameters like diameters and pitches of both core and cladding regions have fluctuated with an optimized structure. After completing the numerical analysis, it is clearly visualized that the proposed H-PCF exhibits high sensitivity with low confinement loss. The investigated results reveal the relative sensitivity of 56.65% and confinement loss of 2.31×10 5 dB/m at the 1.33-m wavelength. Moreover, effective area, nonlinearity, and V-parameter of the suggested PCF are also briefly described.

Photonic Crystals and Photonic Crystal Fibers for Sensing Applications

We have recently fabricated continuous semiconducting micro and nanowires within the empty spaces of highly ordered microstructured (e.g., photonic crystal or holey) optical fibers (MOFs). These systems contain the highest aspect ratio semiconductor micro-and nanowires yet produced by any method: centimeters long and ~100 nm in diameter. These structures combine the flexible light guiding capabilities of an optical fiber with the electronic and optical functionalities of semiconductors and have many potential applications for in-fiber sensing, including in-fiber detection, modulation, and generation of light.
