Low-Cost Transducer Based On Surface Scattering Using Side-Polished D-Shaped Optical Fibers

This work presents a new low-cost and environmentally friendly optical transducer based on surface scattering in a side-polished fiber mounted on a glass groove. The surface roughness caused by polishing is used to estimate the change in refractive index on top of the fiber. Changing the surrounding...
