SIMULTANEOUS MEASUREMENT OF OPTICAL AND DYNAMIC MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PLASTIC OPTICAL FIBERS [PDF]
Chemical Industry and Chemical Engineering Quarterly, 2010 Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) is one of the most powerful tools to study the behavior of plastic and polymer composite materials and it is a potentially very useful tool to simulate behavior of plastic optic fibers (POF) in real appli¬cations.

Refractive Index Sensor Based on Twisted Tapered Plastic Optical Fibers
Photonics, 2019 We proposed a refractive index (RI) sensor employing two twisted tapered plastic optical fibers (POFs). The tapered POFs were fabricated by a heating and drawing method and were twisted around each other to form a coupled structure.

A facile optical sensor: Plastic optical fiber voids as a liquid level presence sensor
Results in Optics, 2023 Optical sensors use light to detect or monitor different phenomena. Plastic optical fibers (POFs) have larger core diameters and are more flexible and easier to handle than glass optical fibers, making them perfect for many sensing applications.
