摘要
The fabrication and characterization of long-period gratings (LPGs) in fiber tapers is presented alongside supporting theory. The devices possess a high sensitivity to the index of aqueous solutions due to an observed spectral bifurcation effect, yielding a limiting index resolution of +/- 8.5 x 10(-5) for solutions with an index in the range 1.330-1.335.
