Abstract:Fiber optic sensors have been developed taking advantage on the synergy between the properties of nanostructured materials and the ones that characterize an optical fiber. The mechanical properties of optical fiber introduce some restrictions to the techniques used for the deposition of materials. As an alternative to the classical deposition procedures, wet coating techniques have been successfully applied in these cases. The current chapter put emphasis on materials that can be incorporated using wet coating… Show more
