Gas Sensing with a Sub-Micron Tapered Fibre Embedded in Hydrophobic Aerogel

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Tapered fibres with waist diameters down to 0.7 μm embedded in hydrophobic aerogel are demonstrated as evanescent-field gas sensors. The porous aerogel is permeable to gases but protects the sub-micron fibre from contamination and damage.
