New cladding polymer for optical oxygen sensor using fluorescent plastic fiber

Abstract
Improvement of the optical fiber oxygen sensor based on the fluorescence quenching by oxygen gas was studied. Using the newly synthesized poly-l-methylmethacrylate (PMtMA) and its blend of the PMtMA/PMP as the cladding layer, in which sensing dye was doped, the plastic optical fiber (POF) O2 sensor with high sensitivity and a fast response time could be realized. In addition this sensor didn't receive any affect by humidity.
