✦ Synopsis

BACKGROUND

This short review presents an overview of devices based on reversible changes in the optical properties of an immobilized indicator as a function of analyte concentration. In most cases, fiber optics are used to conduct light to and from the indicator. This is an emerging area of sensor development that has been the subject of several recent reviews

In contrast to pre¨ious bulk optic approaches, this letter describes a no¨el all-fiber polarimeter for chemical sensing using D-fiber. The polarimeter is a single-fiber sensor, and is less sensiti¨e to en¨ironmental fluctuation in comparison with the two-fiber interferometric sensor. Theoretical sen

A method for producing membranes for optical pH sensors is described. The pH indicators (Neutral Red and Congo Red) are covalently bonded to a transparent acetylcellulose film. The membranes have good durability (> 9 months) and a short response time (ca. 30 s). The method is easy to perform and use
