摘要	A corrugated surface long period grating (LPG) was fabricated on a flat-shaped plastic optical fiber (POF) as a refractive index (RI) sensor by a simple pressing with the heat pressure and mechanical die press print method. The light propagation characteristics of an LPG imprinted on a multi-mode POF were analyzed by the method of geometrical optics. Theoretical and experimental results showed that the structural parameters of the sensor affected the RI sensing performance, and the sensor with a thinner flat thickness, a deeper groove depth of the corrugated surface LPG, and a longer LPG exhibited better RI sensing performance. When the POF with a diameter of 1 mm was pressed with the heat pressure to a flat shape with a thickness of 600 µm, an LPG with a period of 300 µm, a groove depth of 200 µm, and a length of 6 cm was fabricated on it, and the RI sensitivity of 1447%/RIU was obtained with a resolution of 5.494×10−6 RIU. In addition, the influences of the POF cladding, tilting of LPG, and bending of the sensing structure were investigated. The results demonstrated that after removing the cladding and tilting or bending the LPG, the RI sensing performance was improved. When the LPG imprinted on the flat-shaped POF was bent with a curvature radius of 6/π cm, the highest sensitivity of 6 563%/RIU was achieved with a resolution of 2.487×10−9 RIU in the RI range of 1.3330–1.4230. The proposed sensor is a low-cost solution for RI measurement with the features of easy fabrication, high sensitivity, and intensity modulation at the visible wavelengths. © 2023, The Author(s).
