  • optical fiber refractometers based on Indium Tin Oxide coaTings fabricated by sputtering
    Optics Letters, 2012
    Co-Authors: S Lopez, Miguel Hernaez, I. Del Villar, Francisco J. Arregui, Ruiz C Zamarreno, Ignacio R. Matias
    Abstract:

    This Letter presents the fabrication of optical fiber refractometers based on Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coaTings deposited by sputtering with response in the visible region. ITO thin films have been sputtered by means of a rotaTing mechanism that enables the fabrication of smooth and homogeneous coaTings onto the optical fiber core. The ITO coaTing acts as a resonance supporTing layer. This permits us to couple light from the waveguide to the ITO-coaTing/external medium region at specific wavelength ranges. The device is sensitive to external medium refractive index, which allows its utilization as a refractometer. The sensitivity is dependent on the coaTing thickness, ranging from 523.21 to 1221 nm/refractive index unit in the explored sensors. The sensor development process is time effective compared to other techniques such as dip coaTing or layer-by-layer self-assembly, which is interesTing in terms of mass production.

  • optical fiber refractometers based on sputtered Indium Tin Oxide coaTings
    International Conference on Sensing Technology, 2011
    Co-Authors: S Lopez, Miguel Hernaez, I. Del Villar, Francisco J. Arregui, C R Zamarreno, Ignacio R. Matias
    Abstract:

    This work presents the fabrication of optical fiber refractometers based on Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coaTings deposited by sputtering with response in the visible spectral region. ITO thin-films have been sputtered by employing a rotaTing mechanism that enables the fabrication of smooth and homogeneous coaTings onto the optical fiber core. Fabricated ITO coated optical fiber devices present several resonances in the visible and near infrared region. These resonances show high optical power attenuations (more than 10 dB) in the visible spectral region, which produces changes in the colour of the output visible light. Therefore, since these resonances shift as a function of the refractive index (RI) of the surrounding medium it is feasible to determine the RI of the outer medium in contact with the ITO coaTing by simply monitoring the chromatic coordinates (colour change), x and y, of the visible output light.

  • lossy mode resonance generation with Indium Tin Oxide coated optical fibers for sensing applications
    Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2010
    Co-Authors: I Del Villar, Miguel Hernaez, Francisco J. Arregui, C R Zamarreno, Ignacio R. Matias
    Abstract:

    Surface plasmon resonances and lossy mode resonances (LMRs) can be generated with Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coated optical fibers. Both phenomena are analyzed and compared. LMRs present important advantages: they do not require a specific polarization of light, it is possible to generate multiple attenuation bands in the transmission spectrum, and the sensitivity of the device to external parameters can be tuned. The key parameter is the thickness of the ITO coaTing. The study is supported with both theoretical and experimental results. The main purposes are sensing and generation of multiple-wavelength filters.
