Numerical investigation of the performance of an SPR-based optical fiber sensor in an aqueous environment using finite-difference time domain

We investigate a surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based optical fiber sensor using 2-D finite-difference time domain (FDTD) simulations. The optical sensor is designed by polishing a single-mode optical fiber by symmetrically removing a portion of its cladding forming two sensing regions. We analyze...
