我们研究了一种漏波导转换塑料光纤（POF）烷烃气体传感器使用聚异戊二烯作为包层，在烷烃的存在下膨胀。所提出的传感器具有两层结构，在溶胀包层上具有光吸收层，以提高传感器的灵敏度。双层传感器的上层通过电喷雾沉积（ESD）方法形成，该方法能够在干法工艺中形成薄膜。在ESD方法中，高电压被施加到液体，并且随后液滴的蒸发和分裂被用于形成薄膜。然而，由于高电压应用，抗静电处理是必不可少的塑料光纤。因此，为了提供导电性，将三丁基甲基铵-双添加到下层并将炭黑添加到上层。结果，制造了具有使用炭黑的两层结构的传感器，其具有改进的灵敏度。
We study a leaky-waveguide-converted plastic optical fiber (POF) alkane-gas sensor using polyisoprene as the cladding, which swells in the presence of alkanes. The proposed sensor has a two-layered structure with a light-absorbing layer on the swollen cladding to improve the sensor sensitivity. The upper-layer of the double-layered sensor is formed through the Electrospray Deposition (ESD) method, which enables thin-film formation in a dry process. In the ESD method, high-voltage is applied to a liquid, and the subsequent evaporation and splitting of the droplets is used to form a thin film. However, due to high-voltage application, antistatic treatment is essential for the POF. Therefore, tributylmethylammonium-bis is added to the lower layer and carbon black to the upper layer for providing conductivity. As a result, a sensor with a two-layered structure using carbon black is fabricated with improved sensitivity.
