Conference paperAbstract
Polyurethane (PU) based hollow core fibers are investigated as optical sensors. The flexibility of PU fibers makes it suitable for sensing mechanical perturbations. We fabricated a PU fiber using the fiber drawing method, characterized the fiber and experimentally demonstrated a simple way to measure deformation, in the form of applied pressure.Polyurethane (PU) based hollow core fibers are investigated as optical sensors.
