摘要
We describe a simple and versatile optical sensing device for measuring refractive index of liquids. The sensor consists of a sinusoidal relief grating in a glass cell. Device calibration is done by pouring in the cell different liquids of known refractive indices. Each time a liquid is poured first order intensity is measured. The fabrication process and testing of the prototype device is described. An application in the measurement of temperature is also presented. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America
