Pressure sensing by surface plasmon resonance in the Otto configuration

depending on the type of application, pressure level, and 49 dynamic range to be measured. Tactile sensing also relies on 50 similar detection principles [13], but, in general, a 2-D distrib-51 ution of deformations is required [14]. Artificial tactile sensing 52 is an important problem, and new sensing principles are 53 demanded for wearable systems [15], for object manipulation 54 in robotics [16], for the development of man/machine inter-55 faces useful for rehabilitation and prosthesis deployment [17], 56 and for several other applications. 57 In this work, following a preliminary study on the use of the 58 SPR effect for pressure sensing [18], the pressure dependence 59 of representative parameters of the SPR effect on the Otto chip 60 is further investigated, and one demonstrates the potential of 61 the technique for tactile sensing. 62 Among well-established optical transducers for pressure 63 sensing, FBGs are well-developed [12], [19]. These fiber 64 sensors can be mass produced, and existing commercial inter-65 rogators with built-in regression algorithms can detect shifts 66 in wavelength down to the pm level, yielding a high degree 67 of sensitivity for the measurand. The measurement relies on 68 spectral analysis of the signal and broadband light sources are 69 generally employed. The SPR effect in the Otto configuration
