Investigation of gas sensor based on differential optical absorption spectroscopy using photonic crystal fiber

This study presented a novel shape photonic crystal fiber based gas sensor for the first time. Perfectly circular shape air hole are arranged to form core and cladding region. Based on full vector finite element method (FV-FEM) and circular shape perfectly matched layer (PML) the designed sensor has...
