Abstract
The application of an etching process in a single-mode multimode single-mode (SMS) fiber allows monitoring the change of refractive index of wind turbine gearbox oil due to temperature and degradation with a limitation at short temperatures, where the transmission and attenuation bands in the optical spectrum fade. The application of a black tin oxide nanocoating solves this issue and allows tuning the refractive index region where the sensitivity is maximum. The SMS was designed for operating at short wavelengths, where the setup is less expensive. The experimental results were contrasted with a theoretical analysis developed with FIMMWAVE, which allowed understanding better the phenomena involved in the experiments.
