“…Depending on the configuration, impressive refractometric sensitivities in the range [10 2 –10 4 nm/RIU] have been reported [ 11 , 64 ]. Very recently, an SRI sensitivity even exceeding 10,000 nm/RIU has been theoretically reported for plasmon-assisted excessively tilted gratings [ 65 ].…”

Plasmonic immunosensors are usually made of a noble metal (in the form of a film or nanoparticles) on which bioreceptors are grafted to sense analytes based on the antibody/antigen or other affinity mechanism. Optical fiber configurations are a miniaturized counterpart to the bulky Kretschmann prism and allow easy light injection and remote operation. To excite a surface plasmon (SP), the core-guided light is locally outcoupled. Unclad optical fibers were the first configurations reported to this end. Among the different architectures able to bring light in contact with the surrounding medium, a great quantity of research is today being conducted on metal-coated fiber gratings photo-imprinted in the fiber core, as they provide modal features that enable SP generation at any wavelength, especially in the telecommunication window. They are perfectly suited for use with cost-effective high-resolution interrogators, allowing both a high sensitivity and a low limit of detection to be reached in immunosensing. This paper will review recent progress made in this field with different kinds of gratings: uniform, tilted and eccentric short-period gratings as well as long-period fiber gratings. Practical cases will be reported, showing that such sensors can be used in very small volumes of analytes and even possibly applied to in vivo diagnosis.

Sensitive materials are widely used in the field of optical fiber sensing because of their unique advantages such as rich types, controllable composition ratio and diverse structure distribution. In this paper, the surface of long-period fiber gratings with InGaZnO [(In2O3):(Ga2O3):(ZnO)] nano films with different compositions were coated by pulse laser deposition (PLD) technology. The best sensing ratio and the high sensitivity sensing of the refractive index of long-period fiber grating (LPFG) were achieved through the analysis of the influence of different ratios of InGaZnO nano films on the refractive index sensing characteristics of grating. High sensitivities of 337 nm/RIU (refractive index unit) and 145 dB/RIU of the LPFG are achieved when the best doping ratio of InGaZnO is 7:1:2.
