Journal Article
Alwis, L., Sun, T., & Grattan, K. T. V. (2013). Analysis of Polyimide-Coated Optical Fiber Long-Period Grating-Based Relative Humidity Sensor. IEEE Sensors Journal, 13, 767-771. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2012.2227714

A long-period grating (LPG)-based relative humidity (RH) sensor is developed, based on using a tailored layered polyimide coating on the grating region at the distal end of the fiber probe and allowing it to respond to humidity changes. The attenuati... Read More about Analysis of Polyimide-Coated Optical Fiber Long-Period Grating-Based Relative Humidity Sensor.

Analysis of the Characteristics of PVA-Coated LPG-Based Sensors to Coating Thickness and Changes in the External Refractive Index. (2013)
Journal Article
Alwis, L., Bremer, K., Sun, T., & Grattan, K. T. V. (2013). Analysis of the Characteristics of PVA-Coated LPG-Based Sensors to Coating Thickness and Changes in the External Refractive Index. IEEE Sensors Journal, 13, 1117-1124. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2012.2230534

Recent research has shown that the transmission spectrum of a long period grating (LPG) written into an optical fiber is sensitive to the thickness and the refractive index (RI) of a thin layer deposited on it, a concept which forms the basis of a nu...
