Post-modification of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials is an effective means to enhance their efficient and selective adsorption for heavy metal ions . In this article, we presented a reflection-type optical fiber surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor based on dual core fiber (DCF) coated with UiO-66-RSA (UiO-66-NH 2 post-modified with resorcinol aldehyde) film for the specific detection of Pb(II) in aqueous media . The composite material UiO-66-RSA exhibits stronger affinity and specificity for Pb(II) than UiO-66-NH 2 . The adsorption of Pb(II) can change the equivalent refractive index (RI) of UiO-66-RSA film, causing a regular shift in SPR spectra. Experiments have shown that the limit of detection (LOD) of the SPR Pb(II) sensor can reach 0.1 nM. Meanwhile, research has found that the SPR sensor is accompanied by temperature crosstalk of 0.356 nm/°C. Therefore, we constructed a Michelson temperature interferometer using polymer micro tips on the end face of the fiber core to achieve temperature compensation. Based on the above two sensing channels, dual parameter demodulation of Pb(II) concentration and temperature can be achieved with an error rate of less than 0.5 %. This article has potential research value in exploring the application of post modification techniques of MOF in fiber optic lead ion detection.
In this paper, we proposed an in-fiber Mach-Zehnder temperature sensor based on a dual-core fiber (DCF) in which one core, working as the sensing arm, is suspended in an embedded fluidic channel filled with silicone oil, while the other one, working as the reference arm, locates eccentrically in the DCF. Temperature variations would change the refractive index of silicone oil infiltrated as well as the effective index of the guided mode in the suspended core, thus shifting the interference spectra. Both experiments and numerical simulations were carried out to characterize the sensor. The spectrum shifts measured experimentally agreed well with the theoretical results. Experimental sensitivity of the sensor using a DCF infiltrated with ~20 cm-long silicone oil was found to be as high as −1.42 nm/°, comparable to those of the SPR fiber sensors and other interferometric sensors. The measuring range of the sensor was more than 120°. The proposed sensor could be easily fabricated with good robustness and stability, which makes the sensor promising for applications such as environment and architecture monitoring.
