摘要：

We demonstrate power-based refractive index (RI) sensing using an ultrasonically crushed polymer optical fiber (POF). This structure can be easily and cost-effectively fabricated within a short time (i.e., similar to 1 s) without the need to employ external heat sources or chemicals. The only requirement is to simply press a horn connected to an ultrasonic transducer against part of the POF. The RI dependence of the transmitted power shows linear trends in RI ranges of similar to 1.32 to similar to 1.36 [coefficient: -62dB/RIU (RI unit)] and similar to 1.40 to similar to 1.44 (coefficient: -257 dB/RIU). The temperature dependence of the transmitted power is also investigated. (C) 2017 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
