A novel examination of limonene detection using plastic fiber optic sensors and the tapered approach

A novel tapered plastic optic fiber (POF) biosensor is proposed and demonstrated for monitoring limonene in different concentrations. The mechanism of this device is based on an increase in the light transmission of a sensor submerged in a higher-concentration limonene solution, which also reflects...
