The potential for using multiplexed single-photon counting to acquire fluorescence lifetime data from a distributed array of optical fiber sensors, each sensing a different analyte, has recently been demonstrated by Birch etal.(39,47) Figure 12.9 illustrates such a network to be used in conjunction with the arrangement shown in Figure 12.6. 

Fiber optic sensors are an alternative to thermocouples as embedded temperature distribution mapping sensors. As described in Section 2.2.7, McIntyre et al.104 developed two distinct fiber optic temperature probe technologies for fuel cell applications (free space probes and optical fiber probes). Both sensor technologies showed similar trends in fuel cell temperature and were also used to study transient conditions.

In this paper, a surcharge loading test on a soil nailed slope model was conducted. The Pulse-PrePump Brillion Optical Time-Domain Analysis (PPP-BOTDA) technology was used to monitor the strain distributions the slope model. During model construction, a special tight-buffered optical fiber was embedded in the soil mass and served as fully distributed strain sensors. The horizontal strain patterns at the active and passive zones... 

As fully distributed BOTDA sensors, the optical fiber has functions of sensing and data transmission. Using the newly developed PPP-BOTDA technology, the strain and temperature measurement accuracy can be increased to be 7 ie, and 0.3 °C, respectively, with a spatial resolution of 2 cm. Therefore, a high-accuracy slope strain sensing network can easily be constructed. The installation technique of this technology is relatively simple. The sensing fiber can be embedded in the slope mass or installed...

Nanocomposites containing metal nanoparticles have attracted a great deal of attention, with resulting magneto-optical properties that strongly depend on the structure, size, and dispersion of the embedded particles looking for their scientific and industrial applications in areas such as optical fiber sensors, optical isolators, information storage, and so on. The narrow particle size distribution and...
