Area of Science:

  • Photonics and Optical Sensing
  • Fiber Optic Sensors
  • Biomedical Instrumentation

Background:

  • Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) is a powerful optical sensing technique.
  • Tilted Fiber Bragg Gratings (TFBG) offer enhanced sensitivity for refractive index measurements.
  • Accurate and rapid detection of surrounding refractive index (SRI) is crucial in various scientific applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel algorithm for accelerating the calibration and measurement of SRI using SPR in a TFBG.
  • To demonstrate automatic selection of the most sensitive cladding mode for enhanced sensor performance.
  • To investigate the trade-offs between scanning speed and sensitivity in SRI detection.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing SPR in a TFBG for cladding mode interrogation.
  • Preparing refractive index samples with a small index step (2.2 × 10-5) using glucose solutions.
  • Implementing an algorithm for automatic selection of sensitive cladding modes by comparing their sensitivities.
  • Analyzing the impact of reduced wavelength resolution on scanning speed and SRI sensitivity.
  • Applying parabolic equation calculation and weighted Gauss fitting to improve sensitivity.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a highest sensitivity of -6887 dB/RIU with a scanning time of 15.77 s.
  • Reduced scanning time to as low as 1.58 s by decreasing wavelength resolution.
  • Observed a decrease in SRI sensitivity with reduced resolution, ranging from 17.5% to 36.7%.
  • Improved sensitivity to -6332 dB/RIU and -6721 dB/RIU for 0.07 nm resolution, and -5850 dB/RIU and -6228 dB/RIU for 0.14 nm resolution through data fitting techniques.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed novel algorithm effectively accelerates SRI demodulation and calibration in SPR-TFBG sensors.
  • Automatic selection of sensitive cladding modes and data processing techniques enhance sensor efficiency and accuracy.
  • The study provides a viable method for rapid and sensitive refractive index measurements, balancing speed and sensitivity.
