A comparative study of lossy mode resonances generated by depositing two different materials
is presented. The two materials selected are indium tin oxide (ITO) and indium oxide. The two
materials present different dielectric dispersion, which leads to the generation of single-peak
lossy mode resonances with the ITO coated optical fibers and dual-peak lossy mode resonances
with the In2O3 coated optical fibers. The obvious advantage of a dual-peak based measurement
in the sensors field is enhanced by a sensitivity increase observed in sensors based on In2O3 if
compared with those based on ITO. These characteristics are analyzed both theoretically and
experimentally.

This paper presents the first optical fibre sensor gateway for integrating these special measurement devices in Home
Automation Systems, concretely in those buildings that use the KNX European Intelligent Buildings Standard.
