Abstract:We report the study of an optical device for the measurement of hydrostatic pressure in fluids. The device studied is a sensor based on a dielectric optical resonator in the form of a capillary that confines the light in its interior through the phenomenon of total internal reflection. For the analytical study of sensitivity, we have considered the solution of the Helmholtz scalar equation for the case of a resonant cavity in form of cylinder composed of three layers with different refractive index. During the… Show more
