Power-Interrogated Refractive Index Sensor Using Long Period Grating in Photonic Crystal Fiber

We reported a long period grating (LPG) written in specially designed photonic crystal fiber (PCF) for refractive index (RI) sensing by interrogating the transmitted light power. The outermost ring of clad holes of the PCF is enlarged where the analyte is filled. We showed that the leakage loss of t...
