Evaluation of Viscosity Dependence of the Critical Meniscus Height with Optical Fiber Sensors (2021)
Journal Article
Binetti, L., Simpson, F., & Alwis, L. S. M. (2021). Evaluation of Viscosity Dependence of the Critical Meniscus Height with Optical Fiber Sensors. Sensors, 21(23), Article 8130. https://doi.org/10.3390/s21238130

Conventional means of data extraction using optical fiber interrogators are not adequate for fast-paced detection of a target parameter. In this instance, the relationship between the critical meniscus heights (CMH) of several liquids to the extracti...

Novel Technique for Meniscus Height Measurement of Liquids Using Optical Fibers (2021)
Journal Article
Binetti, L., & Alwis, L. S. M. (2021). Novel Technique for Meniscus Height Measurement of Liquids Using Optical Fibers. IEEE Sensors Journal, 21(18), 20092-20098. https://doi.org/10.1109/jsen.2021.3100644

A novel technique was designed to measure the meniscus height (MH) of liquids on a standard single mode fiber (SMF) using fiber optics. Once the MH is known, the contact angle could be calculated, and the surface tension of liquids can be determined....
