Key Features:All the contents in this book are totally different from the topics covered in other books on fiber optic sensors as we focus on chemical and biochemical sensing applications of fiber topic plasmonic sensorsThe book discusses the fiber optic chemical and biosensors based on plasmonics which is one of the hottest topics of research these days. Further, the book includes sensor fabrication methods apart from just adding sensors based on surface interactionsThe book includes not only the basics of surface plasmons but also the chemical and bio-chemical sensing applications using optical fiber technologyThe book covers the state of art work on fiber optic sensors utilizing surface plasmon resonance techniqueThe authors have carried out tremendous amount of research on this area during the last 10 years and their work has extensively been cited in the literature.
