Abstract:SUMMARY
The development of an evanescent wave optical fiber sensor modified with an organic–inorganic hybrid nanoporous thin film for the detection of organic solvent vapors was demonstrated. The optical fiber with a core diameter of 200 μm was bent into U‐shape to enhance the penetration depth of light transferred into the evanescent field, and modified with a multilayered thin film of poly (allylamine hydrochloride) and silica nanoparticles (PAH/SiO2)n, via layer‐by‐layer (LbL) film deposition. The mesoporou… Show more
