Optical router for optical fiber sensor networks based on a liquid crystal cell
(09/04/2003)
Optical fiber sensor networks are evolving rapidly. They are used because of the inert nature of optical fibers allowing no electromagnetic interference and safe applications in inflammable atmospheres; other relevant ...
Time Division Multiplexing Fibre-Optic Liquid Level Sensors using a Nematic 1x2 Optical Switch
(09/01/2004)
In this paper, time division multiplexing with optical switches in a multi-sensor system for level measurements with POF is reported. POF are used in the sensor heads and as transmission media along the optical network. ...

Characterization of long period gratings manufactured with fiber optic fusion splicer for sensor development
(Planta Piloto de Ingeniería Química, 2020-12-24)
A Long Period Grating (LPG) is a structure inscribed in an optical fiber that is of great interest in the field of communications and sensors. At Centro de Investigaciones Ópticas (CIOp), an LPG manufacturing process was ...
Multi-sensor system using plastic optical fibers for intrinsically safe level measurements
(10/04/2004)
A system for measuring liquid level in multiple tanks using optical fiber technology has been developed. Oil field service industry or any sector requiring liquid level measurements in flammable atmospheres can be benefited ...
Self-aligning CMOS photodetector sensor for application on an NDB-based optical encoder
(Optical Society of America, 2019-11)
In this work, a complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) photodetector specifically designed to be used in a non-diffracting-beam (NDB) optical encoder is introduced. The sensor is aimed to address the critical ...
Wideband quad optical sensor for high-speed sub-nanometer interferometry
(Optical Society of America, 2017-01)
This paper describes the design and performance of a low-noise and high-speed optical sensor that provides two output signals in quadrature from the simultaneous detection of four phase-shifted interferograms. The sensor ...
Optical Losses in Hybrid Microcavity Based in Porous Semiconductors and its Application as Optic Chemical Sensor
(Trans Tech Publications, 2019-02)
In this study the experimental and theoretical optical analysis of a hybrid microcavity (HM) based in porous silicon (PS) and nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA) are presented. The microcavity was centered in the visible region ...
