AC/DC millivoltage sensor by means of ITO-coated optical fibers: towards monitoring of biosignals
This contribution shows the monitoring of AC and DC millivoltage signals by means of lossy mode resonances generated by Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) on optical fibers. Sensors were obtained by sputtering ITO thin-films onto 25 ... -

Generation of lossy mode resonances in planar waveguides toward development of humidity sensors
Lossy mode resonances (LMRs) are typically obtained with optical fibre. The Kretschmann configuration is an alternative but LMRs are generated with angles approaching grazing incidence. In this work, a new setup is explored, ... -
Generation of lossy mode resonances with different nanocoatings deposited on coverslips
The 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 ... -
Highly sensitive sensor for measuring material thermal expansion using a ring laser
A new thermal expansion sensor is presented in this letter. It combines an interferometric fiber sensor and an erbium-doped fiber ring laser as the light source. The sensor consists of a combination of single-mode, ... -
Improving the width of lossy mode resonances in a reflection configuration D-shaped fiber by nanocoating laser ablation
The 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 ... -
Increasing the sensitivity of an optic level sensor with a wavelength and phase sensitive single-mode multimode single-mode (SMS) fiber structure
The sensitivity of a liquid level sensor based on a single-mode-multimode-single-mode fiber structure has been increased by hydrofluoric acid etching. The etching process was analyzed and monitored both theoretical and ... -
Interdigital concept in photonic sensors based on an array of lossy mode resonances
Multi-parameter detection is key in the domain of sensors. Here it is demonstrated that an indium tin oxide (ITO) nanocoating can be used to generate multiple lossy mode resonances (LMRs) in the optical spectrum. To achieve ... -

Simultaneous generation of surface plasmon and lossy mode resonances in the same planar platform
A planar waveguide consisting of a coverslip for a microscope glass slide was deposited in one of its two faces with two materials: silver and indium tin oxide (ITO). The incidence of light by the edge of the coverslip ...
