Bend-Direction and Rotation Plastic Optical Fiber Sensor [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2020
A plastic filament of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was fabricated by extrusion. The mode confinement was simulated using numerical software. The idea is to study how the light intensity changes inside the plastic optical fiber (POF) when a bending ...
