摘要
We developed a highly sensitive side-polished plastic optical fiber coated with chemical synthesized graphene/polyaniline nanocomposite for ammonia gas sensing application. It was found that the optical sensor absorbance spectrum linearly increases with increasing ammonia concentrations. The experimental results revealed that the side-polished fiber sensor coated with graphene/polyaniline nanocomposite exhibited higher performance than the ones coated with only polyaniline. The proposed sensor demonstrated sensitivity, response and recovery times of 132.8 AU%, 112 s, and 185 s, respectively, at room temperature. The superior sensing performance of the developed fiber sensor indicates its high efficiency for NH3 gas-sensing applications at room temperature. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America
