Abstract: Response time of optical microfiber temperature sensor is investigated based on the microfiber modal interferometer (MMI). Sensitivity of −406pm/°C is obtained in temperature sensing, which ...

Plastic coolant flanges in European cars fail predictably at 80,000-100,000 miles, potentially destroying engines despite costing just $20 to replace.

Abstract: In order to cope with the crosstalk between temperature and refractive index (RI) caused by high-temperature environments, this study proposes to modify the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) ...
