Abstract

Evanescent field optical fibre sensors have been widely exploited in biochemical assays. The use of multimode fibres has revealed a number of limitations, especially in the case of absorption sensors. In this paper, we describe the use of a tapered single mode optical fibre as an optimised system to act as an evanescent wave absorption sensor, with a calcium detection scheme as a model system.
