Abstract

A study of polymer photonic crystal fiber (PCF) sensor coated with smart composite materials for measurements of refractive index of analyte is presented in this paper. The proposed sensor combines the characteristics of polymer PCF and composite material, which can make the confinement loss lower than the silica PCF duo to the double interaction of the polymer and silver film. The results obtained in this study demonstrate that polymer PCF sensors coated with composite material and with the polymer PCF’s advantages, the sensor’s feasibility can be improved further and it can be applied in a broad field, especially in biosensing platforms.
