The concern for Sensing Application using photonic crystal had become an elevation in diverse field. Enhanced precision in sensing became an anticipation of users. Photonic crystal fibers are considered to be eccentric than optical fiber sensors due to its geometric structures. By proposing novelty in geometric structures of PCF can increase the sensitivity range as per the required application. In this paper we made a review on different sensors like physical , Curvature, Displacement, Electric and magnetic field, Refractive Index , Bio chemical, Biomedical which are used for sensing applications .

Photonic crystal fibers are a kind of fiber optics that present a diversity of new and improved features beyond what conventional optical fibers can offer. Due to their unique geometric structure, photonic crystal fibers present special properties and capabilities that lead to an outstanding potential for sensing applications. A review of photonic crystal fiber sensors is presented. Two different groups of sensors are detailed separately: physical and biochemical sensors, based on the sensor measured parameter. Several sensors have been reported until the date, and more are expected to be developed due to the remarkable characteristics such fibers can offer.

This paper discusses the applications of photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) for strain and temperature measurement. Long-period grating sensors and in-fiber modal interferometric sensors are described and compared with their conventional single-mode counterparts. The strain sensitivities of the air-silica PCF sensors are comparable or higher than those implemented in conventional single-mode fibers but the temperature sensitivities of the PCF sensors are much lower.

Photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) are a special class of optical fibers with a periodic arrangement of microstructured holes located in the fiber’s cladding. Light confinement is achieved by means of either index-guiding, or the photonic bandgap effect in a low-index core. Ever since PCFs were first demonstrated in 1995, their special characteristics, such as potentially high birefringence, very small or high nonlinearity, low propagation losses, and controllable dispersion parameters, have rendered them unique for many applications, such as sensors, high-power pulse transmission, and biomedical studies. When the holes of PCFs are filled with solids, liquids or gases, unprecedented opportunities for applications emerge. These include, but are not limited in, supercontinuum generation, propulsion of atoms through a hollow fiber core, fiber-loaded Bose–Einstein condensates, as well as enhanced sensing and measurement devices. For this reason, infiltrated PCF have been the focus of intensive research in recent years. In this review, the fundamentals and fabrication of PCF infiltrated with different materials are discussed. In addition, potential applications of infiltrated PCF sensors are reviewed, identifying the challenges and limitations to scale up and commercialize this novel technology.

Abstract The interaction effect of the fundamental mode of a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with a thin-film absorbing coating deposited on a surface of a fiber cladding on the optical transmission of the PCF is studied. It is shown that the transmission has a quasi-periodic spectrum that is determined either by a resonance coupling between the leaky fundamental PCF mode and leaky modes of the coating, or between the leaky fundamental PCF mode and cladding modes localized between PCF air channels and the coating. Examples are presented of using this effect for fiber-optic sensors of refractive index, pressure, and for sensing an adsorption layer of ammonia molecules deposited on a coating surface contacting with air.

AbstractThe study has outlined various photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) configurations for the key solution to the optimization of data rates transmission. The proposed fibers that are namely octagonal photonic crystal fiber (OPCF), hexagonal photonic crystal fiber (HPCF), and elliptical photonic crystal fiber (E-PCF) are used in the system. The dispersion parameter coefficient, pulse broadening variations, and data rates transmission are examined for proposed fibers under the same fiber lengths and number of quantization level with using pulse code modulation (PCM). The system performance is enhanced with OPCF with reducing dispersion factor, pulse broadening effects and consequently increasing data rates transmission.
