Abstract(in English) Dye-doped polymer optical fiber (POF) having a polarization-maintaining function fabricated using a birefringence-reduced core (BRC) is expected to enable strain detection with a new feature. This article describes the use of “cyan” dichroic dye to see whether it may exhibit enhanced sensor performance attributed to its absorption at the red region that matches the transmission window of the host polymer. As a result, dye concentration was found to impact the balance of the optimized optical anisotropy of the BRC-POF. Fabricated sensors had shown pronounced variations in their output signals at different stress configurations.
