This numerical study presents an investigation of an optical fiber D-shaped PCF SPR sensor for temperature sensing, via the finite element method-based COMSOL Multiphysics simulation software. In the proposed PCF configuration, the sensor consists of two different-sized air holes and a gold layer. Between 10°C and 60°C, pure ethanol and an ethanol-chloroform mixture are selected to be used as analytes and their temperature sensitivities are compared. The effect of sensor parameters on sensor sensitivity is studied, and the optimum value is set for each parameter. The maximum sensitivity is calculated as 2008 pm/℃ for the pure ethanol, while it has reached 7750 pm/℃ for the ethanol-chloroform mixture, showing that chloroform improves the performance. The sensor proposed in this study has a higher temperature sensitivity compared to other studies and therefore has significant potential for applications requiring precise measurement

Yüksek hassasiyetli D Şekilli PCF SPR Sıcaklık Sensörünün Sayısal Analizi

Öz

Bu sayısal çalışma, sonlu elemanlar yöntemi tabanlı COMSOL Multiphysics simülasyon yazılımıyla sıcaklık algılama için optik fiber D-şekilli PCF SPR sensörünün bir incelemesini sunmaktadır. Önerilen PCF konfigürasyonunda sensör, iki farklı boyutta hava boşlukları ve bir altın katmandan oluşmaktadır. 10°C ile 60°C arasında, analit olarak kullanılmak üzere saf etanol ve etanol-kloroform karışımı seçilmiş ve sıcaklık duyarlılıkları karşılaştırılmıştır. Sensör parametrelerinin sensör hassasiyeti üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiş ve her parametre için optimum değer belirlenmiştir. Maksimum hassasiyet saf etanol için 2008 pm/℃ olarak hesaplanırken, etanol-kloroform karışımı için 7750 pm/℃ değerine ulaşmıştır, bu da kloroformun performansı artırdığını göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada önerilen sensör, diğer çalışmalara kıyasen daha yüksek sıcaklık hassasiyetine sahip olduğundan hassas ölçüm gerektiren uygulamalar için önemli bir potansiyele sahiptir.
