These methods detect physical changes in samples when they absorb mid-infrared (MIR) light, such as shifts in refractive index caused by heat absorption or temperature-induced acoustic signals.

Abstract: Two kinds of novel plasmonic high sensitivity of refractive index (RI) sensors based on analyte-filled photonic crystal fiber (AF-PCF) are proposed in this paper. The metallic gold and ...
