    Optical fiber thermo-refractometer
    (Optica, 2022) Imas GonzÔlez, José Javier; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Del Villar, Ignacio; Cardozo da Silva, Jean Carlos; Oliveira, V.; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    This work presents the implementation of a thermo-refractometer, which integrates the measurement of both refractive index and temperature in a single optical fiber structure. To this purpose, a lossy mode resonance (LMR)-based refractometer is obtained by means of the deposition of a titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film onto a side-polished (D-shaped) single mode fiber. Measurement and subsequent temperature compensation are achieved by means of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) inscribed in the core of the D-shaped region. The LMR wavelength shift is monitored in transmission while the FBG (FBG peak at 1533 nm) displacement is observed in reflection. The LMR is sensitive to both the surrounding refractive index (SRI), with a sensitivity of 3725.2 nm/RIU in the 1.3324-1.3479 range, and the temperature (- 0.186 nm/°C); while the FBG is only affected by the temperature (32.6 pm/°C in the 25°C - 45°C range). With these values, it is possible to recover the SRI and temperature variations from the wavelength shifts of the LMR and the FBG, constituting a thermo-refractometer, where it is suppressed the effect of the temperature over the refractometer operation, which could cause errors in the fourth or even third decimal of the measured SRI value.

    Low cutoff wavelength etched SMS structures towards verification of the quality of automotive antifreeze
    (IEEE, 2020) Rodríguez Rodríguez, Wenceslao Eduardo; Rodríguez Rodríguez, Adolfo Josué; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Del Villar, Ignacio; Zúñiga Alanís, Manuel; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, 2019 904 116; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, PJUPNA26
    Optical fiber single mode-multimode-single mode (SMS) structures can be used as wavelength detection-based sensors. In this work, we focus on the performance at short wavelengths, where optical sources and detectors are less expensive. Here, a self-image band with a high transmission power is monitored in this short-wavelength range. In addition, the diameter and the length of the SMS structure have been optimized in order to improve the sensitivity of the device. In this sense, a maximum refractive index sensitivity of 305 nm/RIU was achieved by an etched SMS with a diameter of 34μ m. Furthermore, the obtained devices were used for testing the quality of automotive coolant and antifreeze liquid.

    Copper oxide coated D-shaped optical fibers for the development of LMR refractometers
    (IEEE, 2020) Ozcariz Celaya, Aritz; Vitoria Pascual, Ignacio; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, PJUPNA26
    Lossy mode resonance (LMR) based refractometers obtained by means of copper oxide thin-films fabricated onto side-polished (D-shaped) are presented in this work. The high refractive index of copper oxide combined with the propagation mode isolation capabilities of D-shaped fibers allows for the observation of narrow (30 nm) and high sensitive (10,336 nm per refractive index unit) LMRs, which could enable to improve the performance of LMR-based refractometers as well as provide an alternative label-free sensing platform for LMR-based sensors.

    Alfalfa quality detection by means of VIS-NIR optical fiber reflection spectroscopy
    (IEEE, 2022) Ruiz Zamarreño, Carlos; Gracia Moisés, Ander; Vitoria Pascual, Ignacio; Imas GonzÔlez, José Javier; Castaño de Egüés, Lorena Yveth; Avedillo de la Casa, Amaia; Matías Maestro, Ignacio; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    A first approach study for the classification of alfalfa (medicago sativa) quality has been performed by means of VIS-NIR optical fiber reflection spectroscopy. Reflection spectral data has been obtained from alfalfa samples comprising six different qualities. Obtained data has been classified and organized to feed supervised self-learning algorithms. Neural networks have been used in order to differentiate the quality level of the samples. Obtained results permit to validate the proposed approach with 72% of the samples properly classified. In addition, proposed solution was implemented in a low cost automated detection prototype suitable to be used by non-qualified operators. Obtained equipment consist of a first step towards its utilization in quality monitoring and classification of many other products in the agri-food field.
