A simplified PCF sensor has been designed to detect the different drinkable milk that includes camel, cow and buffalo milk, and can also assess its quality. The sensor features a singular circular core design and two layers octagonal cladding air holes that was analysed using the Finite Element Method technique in COMSOL Multiphysics software and determine the sensing and optical performance parameters: power fraction, relative sensitivity, confinement loss, effective area, numerical aperture, V-Parameter, spot size, and beam divergence. At the optimum wavelength of 6.0 µm, the relative sensitivities are 96.58%, 96.78%, and 96.84%, and confinement losses of 3.51 × 10−8 dB/m, 1.47 × 10−8 dB/m, and 8.59 × 10−9 dB/m, for camel, cow, and buffalo milk, respectively. The efficacy of the proposed PCF structure for sensing applications in the dairy industry in distinguishing between different types of milk is evidenced by these findings. Moreover, the results of confinement loss and chromatic dispersion suggest potential applications of this design in optical communication.

“…The background material is fused silica with cladding air holes. The refractive index n of fused silica are calculated using the defined Sellmeier's equation [16,17]: where, λ is the operating wavelength. The sensing test food additive analytes are saccharin (n = 1.43), sorbitol, (n = 1.41), and butyl acetate (n = 1.39) [12].…”

To detect food additives, a simple photonic crystal fibre design based on an octagonal hole and hollow circular cladding holes in two layers has been introduced. The numerical study of the design is conducted by simulation in the COMSOL Multiphysics software with the infiltrated test analytes: saccharin, sorbitol, and butyl acetate, operating in the wavelength variation from 1.6 to 4.0 µm. The performance of the proposed sensor is determined by analysing the principal optical parameters: effective refractive index, power fraction, relative sensitivity, confinement loss, chromatic dispersion, propagation constant, V-parameter, spot size, and beam divergence. At the optimal wavelength of 2.0 µm, the sensor design depicts high relative sensitivities of 98.06% for saccharin, 97.05% for sorbitol, 95.81% for butyl acetate, and 3.82 × 10−23 dB/m for saccharin, 3.44 × 10−22 dB/m for sorbitol, and 1.81 × 10−21 dB/m for butyl acetate for confinement loss, which is extremely low. Hence, the proposed food additive sensor is suitable for actual sensing applications based on these obtained results.

This study proposes a simple and efficient Photonic Crystal Fibre sensor design for the detection of controlled drugs such as cocaine, amphetamine, and ketamine. The design uses a pentagonal core hole and circular cladding air holes in 2 layers, made of fused silica substrate. The sensing performance of the proposed PCF design is evaluated using COMSOL Multiphysics and Finite Element Method, operating in the visible and infrared range from 0.4 to 3.2 μm. Results show that the proposed PCF design achieves high relative sensitivities of 99.55%, 99.75%, and 99.99% for cocaine, amphetamine, and ketamine, respectively, at the optimum wavelength of 0.4 μm. Additionally, the design is robust, showcasing minimal variations in relative sensitivities with changes in pitch distance, air hole diameter, and core hole length. These findings make the proposed PCF design a promising candidate for practical controlled drug sensing.
