Plasmon-enhanced refractometry usingsilver nanowire coatings on tilted fibre Bragg gratings

A novel technique for increasing the sensitivity of tilted fibre Bragg grating (TFBG) based refractometers is presented. The TFBG sensor was coated with chemically synthesized silver nanowires similar to 100 nm in diameter and several micrometres in length. A 3.5-fold increase in sensor sensitivity...
