  • Abstract
    A fiber-optic relative humidity sensor is demonstrated by using photonic crystal fiber as the sensing element which is tapered and filled with the moisture sensitive polymer. The theoretical results show the loss varies from 0.063 dB/cm to 75.847 dB/cm when the relative humidity changes from 0 to 95% RH.
