TL;DR: The optical memory effects of the newly developed sol-gel gel-glass based thermochromic material are studied in this paper, where several fundamental material parameters which contribute to the formation of two stable states in this substance are quantitatively measured.

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel application of the electric field directed layer-by-layer self assembly (EFDLA) selective deposition method for the fabrication of optical fiber pH sensors is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that the success in the communication field does not have to be applicable in sensor technology, and that applications whose requirements could be satisfied better by the intrinsic features of optical fiber than the ones of electronic devices, have been identified: for instance, gyroscopes are Optical Fibre Sensors (OFSs) that have been successfully used to measure rotations.

TL;DR: In this article, a nanostructured optical fiber-based sensors for non-invasive, fast and reliable monitoring of respiratory airflow is presented, which can offer a full range of environmental relative humidity sensing from 0% to 100% with response times of microseconds, and mostly important, provide much higher sensitivity to breathing air, over 6 times larger than 100% relative humidity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the lossy mode resonance (LMR) phenomenon beyond the near-infrared region and specifically in the short wave infrared region (SWIR) and medium wave infrared regions (MWIR).
