The proposed sensor has the advantages of competitive durability and fast and real-time detection based on the
evanescent field coupling between the OMF and the polymer planar waveguide.
The resonance angle depends on the refractive index contrast near the interface in the
evanescent field. The MX96 SPRi device (IBIS Technologies) monitors the resonance angle continuously over time to detect RI changes in the
evanescent field of selected regions of interest in a field of view of 7.8 x 4.7 mm.
P(0)and Pare respectively, the transmitted power through the fiber without and with an analyte over the removed portion of length L, C is the concentration of solution and [gamma] is the
evanescent field absorption coefficientis defined as[13]:

The model neglects the
evanescent field modes in the propagation.
A guided light ray in a bending fiber has
evanescent field that propagates in the cladding.
Here through the ATR prism an
evanescent field was generated, which interacted with the sample, and thereby an eigen mode was excited, provided its wave number equalled that of the
evanescent field.
The interaction between SAs and the signal light can be directional transmission or
evanescent field coupling [9].
Part of the light will penetrate into the upper cladding layer and this portion of light is known as the
evanescent field.
Plasmon resonance shows itself energetically also on the exterior side of the metallic golden or silver layer through a so called "
evanescent field" (Gang Xu et.
