A relative humidity (RH) sensor based on tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) is proposed by utilizing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the sensitive cladding film. RH increasing in PVA coating will result reduction of refractive index. Due to TFBG's sensitivity ambient index, spectral properties PVA-coated TFBG are modified under exposure different levels ranging from 20% 98% RH. The transmission power has linear behaviors for two ranges (20%-74% and 74%-98% RH), each range reaches high 2.52 14.947...

Abstract A series of well‐defined amphiphilic triblock copolymers, poly(ethylene glycol)‐ b ‐poly( tert ‐butyl acrylate)‐ ‐poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PEG‐ ‐P t BA‐ ‐PHEMA), were synthesized via successive atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). ATRP BA was first initiated by PEG‐Br macroinitiator using CuBr/ N,N,N ′, N ″, ′″‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine as catalytic system to give PEG‐ diblock copolymer. This copolymer then used initiate HEMA, which afforded the target...
