EN

An original idea of external parameters (electric field, temperature, pressure etc.) monitoring is presented. After the theoretical analysis of the light modulation in a liquid crystal and elliptical-core anisotropic fiber the latest experimental results are reported. Due to measurands-induced changes in birefringence and propagation conditions the liquid crystal and elliptical-core fiber uniting unique advantages of liquid crystals and quality of fiber technology acts as a sensing medium and can be used for continuous monitoring of different external parameters.
