Surface Plasmon Resonance and Bending Loss-Based U-Shaped Plastic Optical Fiber Biosensors [PDF]
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a large and diverse bacteria group that inhabits the intestinal tract of many mammals. Most E. coli strains are harmless, however some of them are pathogenic, meaning they can make one sick if ingested. By being in the feces

Equivalent Refractive Index Modeling and Multidomain Characterization of the Temperature Response of Loss in Fiber-Optic Macro-Bends [PDF]
In the oil and gas industry, fiber-optic telemetry is hindered by transmission degradation from high-temperature macro-bend loss. In this study, to address the lack of a unified model, we develop a numerical framework incorporating both bending-dominated
