Conference Proceeding
Alwis, L., Sun, T., & Grattan, K. T. (2012). Optimization of a Long Period Grating Distal Probe for Temperature and Refractive Index Measurement. In 26th European Conference on Solid-State Transducers, EUROSENSOR 2012 (718-721). https://doi.org/10.1016/j.proeng.2012.09.248

Long Period Gratings (LPG)-based sensors are widely used due to their higher sensitivity to various measurands. However, a single grating based LPG sensor system has the disadvantage of the probe being used in transmission mode due to the broad bandw...

The sensitivity of a Long Period Grating (LPG)-based refractive index (RI) sensor has been enhanced through an appropriate coating of a thin polymer layer, with a higher RI than that of the cladding, on the LPG. The performance of the coated sensor,... Read More about Refractive index sensor employing PVA-coated long period grating technology.
