Long-Period Fiber Grating Sensor Based on a Conductive Polymer Functional Layer.

A temperature sensor was fabricated with a functional conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) coating on a long-period fiber grating (LPFG). The LPFG was fabricated by laser-assisted wet-chemical etching for controlling the grating depth of the LPFG after the treated surface of an optical fiber was inscribed by laser light. The functional conductive polymer acts as a temperature sustained sensing layer and enhances the grating depth of the LPFG sensor as a strain buffer at various temperatures.

Infectious diseases can be caused by multiple pathogens, which can produce specific immune response in human body. The immune response produced by T cells is cellular immunity, which plays an important role in the anti-infection process of human body, and can participate in immunological protection and cause immunopathology. The outcome of various infectious diseases is closely related to cellular immune function, especially the function of T cells.
