Intensity Demodulated Refractive Index Sensor Based on Front-Tapered Single-Mode-Multimode-Single-Mode Fiber Structure

A novel intensity demodulated refractive index (RI) sensor is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated based on the front-tapered single-mode-multimode-single-mode (FT-SMS) fiber structure. The front taper is fabricated in a section of multimode fiber by flame-heated drawing technique. The inte...
