Publication Open Access Improving the width of lossy mode resonances in a reflection configuration D-shaped fiber by nanocoating laser ablation(Optical Society of America, 2020) Fuentes Lorenzo, Omar; Vaiano, Patrizio; Del Villar, Ignacio; Corres Sanz, Jesús María; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaThe full width at half maximum (FWHM) of lossy mode resonances (LMRs) in the optical spectrum depends on the homogeneity of the thin film deposited. In this Letter, a method for improving the FWHM is applied for an LMR generated by a D-shaped optical fiber in reflection configuration. For this purpose, three samples with different attenuation were deposited with DC sputtering thin films of SnO2−x, and a further controlled immersion of the samples in water was performed. A laser-cleaner method was used to improve the FWHM characteristics of one of the samples from 106 to 53 nm. This improvement can be applied to thin-film-based sensors where there is a problem with the inhomogeneity of the coating thickness. Moreover, with this technique, it was proved that a coated length of just 3–4 mm permits the generation of an LMR, with implications for the miniaturization of the final device.Publication Open Access Generation of lossy mode resonances with different nanocoatings deposited on coverslips(Optical Society of America, 2020) Fuentes Lorenzo, Omar; Goicoechea Fernández, Javier; Corres Sanz, Jesús María; Del Villar, Ignacio; Ozcariz Celaya, Aritz; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de ComunicaciónThe generation of lossy mode resonances (LMRs) with a setup based on lateral incidence of light in coverslips is a simple platform that can be used for sensing. Here the versatility of this platform is proved by studying the deposition of different coating materials. The devices were characterized with both SEM and AFM microscopy, as well as ellipsometry, which allowed obtaining the main parameters of the coatings (thickness, refractive index and extinction coefficient) and relating them with the different sensitivities to refractive index attained with each material. In this way it was possible to confirm and complete the basic rules observed with lossy mode resonance based optical fiber sensors towards the design of simpler and more compact applications in domains such as chemical sensors or biosensors.Publication Open Access Fiber-optic pH sensors fabrication based on selective deposition of neutral red(IEEE, 2009-01-22) Hernáez Sáenz de Zaitigui, Miguel; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaIn this work, a novel application of the electric field directed layer-by-layer self assembly (EFDLA) selective deposition method for the fabrication of optical fiber pH sensors is presented. Here, indium tin oxide (ITO) coated optical fibers have been fabricated via a dip-coating deposition method. These fibers are used as electrodes in the EFDLA protocol in order to deposit selectively the sensitive layer. Neutral Red (NR) colorimetric pH sensitive indicator and the polymers poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) are used in order to obtain a pH sensitive nanostructured coating onto ITO coated optical fibers. The results obtained in this work revealed that the LbL material adsorption on the electrodes can be enhanced or even inhibited when applying a specific direct current voltage between them under some other specific fabrication parameters. Particularly, the response of these sensors to variations of the pH in the surrounding medium was studied when the pH of the solutions used for the fabrication of the films was adjusted to 7.0 and the potential applied between electrodes was set to 2.5 V. These sensors showed fast response time and high repeatability.Publication Open Access High sensitivity optical fiber pH sensor using poly(acrylic acid) nanofibers(IEEE, 2013-12-19) Corres Sanz, Jesús María; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Rodríguez García, Yoany; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaIn this work a new optical fiber pH sensor based on the deposition of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) using the electrospinning technique is presented. The optical fiber structure consists of a 4 cm segment of hollow core fiber (50/150¿m) spliced between two standard multimode fibers onto which the nanoweb is deposited. The sensitive layer is a membrane composed by PAA nanofibers deposited onto the surface of an optical fiber. The sensor has a repetitive behavior and low hysteresis in the pH range 4-7, with an average sensitivity of 0,53 dB/pH.
