A long period grating optical fiber sensor with nano-assembled porphyrin layers for detecting ammonia gas (2016)
Journal Article
Wang, T., Yasukochi, W., Korposh, S., James, S. W., Tatam, R. P., & Lee, S.-W. (2016). A long period grating optical fiber sensor with nano-assembled porphyrin layers for detecting ammonia gas. Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 228, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.snb.2016.01.058

In this study, the ability of a long period grating (LPG) optical fiber sensor coated with a multilayer film of poly(diallyldimethyammonium chloride) (PDDA) and tetrakis(4-sulfophenyl)porphine (TSPP) to detect ammonia gas was demonstrated. The nano-a... Read More about A long period grating optical fiber sensor with nano-assembled porphyrin layers for detecting ammonia gas.
