Feasibility of a Chemical Microsensor Based on Surface Plasmon Resonance on Fiber Optics Modified by Multilayer Vapor Deposition

An intrinsic fiber-optic sensor that uses the surface plasmon effect to monitor the chemical environment surrounding the fiber is described. The sensor is constructed by polishing a short section of the lateral surface of a single-mode fiber to within the evanescent field surrounding the core.
