This
article proposes three novel models of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) based dual
liquid sensor. The performances of Z-Model, X-Model and V-Model structures have
been evaluated by applying the well-known full vectorial finite element method
(FV-FEM) where boundaries are defined with perfectly matched layers (PMLs). The
birefringence and the sensitivity levels of proposed sensors have been studied
where core holes are filled with water (n=1.33) and ethanol (n= 1.354). Our
numerical results have shown that X-Model and Z-Model of A-Type sensor is an
ideal structure for water and ethanol sensing, respectively.
