Fiber optic Surface Plasmon Resonance sensor based on wavelength modulation for hydrogen sensing

A new design of a fiber optic Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensor using Palladium as a sensitive layer for hydrogen detection is presented. In this approach, a transducer layer is deposited on the outside of a multimode fiber, after removing the optical cladding. The transducer layer is a multilayer stack made of a Silver, a Silica and a...

Optimization of Pd Surface Plasmon Resonance sensors for hydrogen detection

A design to optimize a fiber optic Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensor using Palladium as a sensitive layer for hydrogen detection is presented. In this approach, the sensitive layer is deposited on the core of a multimode fiber, after removing the optical cladding. The light is injected in the fiber with a given wavelength and all fiber...

Wavelength response of a surface plasmon resonance palladium-coated optical fiber sensor for hydrogen detection

An optical fiber using palladium as sensitive layer is characterized in the range of 450 to 900 nm. The sensitive layer is deposited on the outside of a multimode fiber, after removing the optical cladding. The sensor is based on a measurement technique that uses the surface plasmon resonance effect. A continuous change in output intensity is...
