Optical Fiber Surface Plasmon Resonance for Glucose Detection

This work proposes a sensor that utilizes a transmission scheme for measuring glucose aqueous solutions based on surface plasmon resonance. A comparison between the performance of two sensors with similar lengths and different diameters is performed. The first sensor comprises a multimode optical fi...

description This work proposes a sensor that utilizes a transmission scheme for measuring glucose aqueous solutions based on surface plasmon resonance. A comparison between the performance of two sensors with similar lengths and different diameters is performed. The first sensor comprises a multimode optical fiber with a diameter of 400 µm and a 10 mm middle section of the cladding removed. The second sensor is similar, except that the fiber has a diameter of 600 µm. The sensors were evaluated for their performance in measuring glucose concentrations ranging from 0.0001 to 0.5000 g/mL. The 400 µm sensor demonstrated high sensitivity however, the sensor with a diameter of 600 µm attained a slightly higher maximum sensitivity of 322.0 nm/(g/mL).
