| description | In this work, a novel fiber-optic sensor for 2D magnetic sensing is explored based on nanostructured magnetic fluid. The fiber-optic sensor comprises a ring-shaped fiber structure that is coated with magnetic fluid. The unique magneto-optical characteristic of the nanostructured magnetic fluid enables the fiber-optic structure to detect magnetic fields. By utilizing the 3D Monte Carlo method, the magneto-optical characteristic induced by the nanostructure changes in the magnetic fluid was analyzed. The sensor can realize 2D vector magnetic sensing by intensity demodulation and achieves a sensitivity of 2.402 dB/mT. The proposed fiber optic sensor helps in developing a high-sensitivity 2D vector magnetic field sensor, which has potential applications in the fields of navigation, electrical power systems, and biological detection. |
