A 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APES) fiber-optic sensor based on a Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) was demonstrated. The MZI was constructed with a core-offset fusion single mode fiber (SMF) structure with a length of 3.0 cm. As APES gradually attaches to the MZI, the external environment of the MZI changes, which in turn causes change in the MZI’s interference. That is the reason why we can obtain the relationships between the APES amount and resonance dip wavelength by measuring the transmission variations of the resonant dip wavelength of the MZI. The optimized amount of 1% APES for 3.0 cm MZI biosensors was 3 mL, whereas the optimized amount of 2% APES was 1.5 mL.

Abstract The paper considers ways to solve the problem of developing a system for monitoring displacement in quarries, which are the main main cause of the collapse of boards and berms in quarries. To ensure safety and constant monitoring during work at the quarry, there are chiseled fiber-optic sensors. The fiber-optic sensor is made on the basis of a single-mode optical fiber, which makes it possible to measure the displacements of the mountain range at distances of about 30 km with high accuracy. Laboratory sample a fiber-optic sensor in its work uses a method for monitoring additional losses that occur during mechanical action on an optical fiber. The fiber-optic sensor was made to show a fairly high linearity and accuracy during measurements and can be used to control the deformation of the array after appropriate refinement of its design. This article is aimed at creating means of controlling the process of deformation and displacement of a mountain massif. Ultimately, the results of the study will help prevent accidents associated with the collapse of the sides. Since the growth of cracks in the rocks of the bort mountain massif leads to its sudden collapse and creates a significant danger for personnel, it also causes the failure of mining equipment.

This paper presents the newly designed fiber optic pressure sensor using the TR-EFPI fiber optic sensor with a single mode fiber (SMF), and a micro fabricated diaphragm. The output signal of TR-EFPI fiber optic pressure sensor can be easily analyzed based on the spliced loss based model and large deflection theory. Then, we can design the optimal length between the thin film of diaphragm and the end of single mode fiber. From these analyses, the relation between the applied pressure and the output signal of TR-EFPI fiber optic sensor can be simulated. Based on these processes, we can design the TR-EFPI fiber optic pressure sensor measuring various conditions by changing the size of thin film. As the newly designed TR-EFPI fiber optic pressure sensor can be fabricated in small size and has good sensitivity, it can be applied to medical instrument like pressure sensor and force sensor for catheter and minimally invasive surgery robot for safer surgery.
