Feasibility Study on the Potential of Fibre Bragg Gratings for Thermal Monitoring of Cylindrical Lithium-Ion Batteries (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Alcock, K., Grammel, M., Binetti, L., Gonzales Vila, A., Goh, K., & Alwis, L. (2020). Feasibility Study on the Potential of Fibre Bragg Gratings for Thermal Monitoring of Cylindrical Lithium-Ion Batteries. In G. Cranch, A. Wang, M. Digonnet, & P. Dragic (Eds.), Optical Fiber Sensors Conference 2020 Special Edition. https://doi.org/10.1364/OFS.2020.T3.49

Bragg Gratings were used to monitor thermal fluctuations of a Lithium-Ion battery by attaching the sensors outside the casing of the battery. Results are comparable to that obtained from thermo-couples and thus verifies its potential.

External Refractive Index Sensitivity Enhancement of a Long Period Grating by Graphene Oxide Overlay (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Dissanayake, K., Ghosh, S., Binetti, L., Rente, B., Alwis, L., Sun, T., & Grattan, K. (2019). External Refractive Index Sensitivity Enhancement of a Long Period Grating by Graphene Oxide Overlay.

In this paper, an external refractive index sensor is presented based on a graphene oxide coated long period grating and based on creating a stable graphene oxide coating on the fibre surface using a drop casting technique. The wavelength shift sensi... Read More about External Refractive Index Sensitivity Enhancement of a Long Period Grating by Graphene Oxide Overlay.

Measurement of viscoelasticity of sodium alginate by Fibre Bragg Grating (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Binetti, L., Stankiewicz, A., & Alwis, L. (2019). Measurement of viscoelasticity of sodium alginate by Fibre Bragg Grating. . https://doi.org/10.3390/proceedings2019015033

A novel sensor for measuring viscoelastic properties of sodium alginate (SA) in distilled water of concentration (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 w/w%) has been tested. The sensor used is an FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) fibre optic sensor. It has seen... Read More about Measurement of viscoelasticity of sodium alginate by Fibre Bragg Grating.
