This study aims to optimize the structure of gold-sputtered U-shaped plastic fiber sensors.

A group of U-shaped Au-sputtered plastic optical fiber sensing probes with polishing angles of 45°, 90° and 135° is prepared.

The experimental results show that the spectral response and sensitivity of the sensor at 45°polishing angle is twice that of the sensor at 90°.

Due to the limitations of laboratory temperature and equipment, the overall effect has not reached the ideal, but the expected effect has been obvious. Experiments also optimize the sensor.

Optical fiber sensing has always been an indispensable part of various fields.

Sensor optimization is of great help to the progress of technology and the development of science and technology.

This paper aims to establish a photoacoustic detection system for SO₂ using UV-LED and testify its feasibility for sensitive measurement. The work in this paper can avoid potential crossover interference in infrared (IR) range and also balance the capability and cost of feasible excitation for photoacoustic detection system.

In this experimental work, a cantilever-enhanced–based photoacoustic SO₂ detection system using an ultraviolet (UV) LED light source with a light power of 4 mW as the excitation was established.

A feasible photoacoustic detection system for SO₂ using UV-LED was established. Experimental results demonstrate that the detection limit of the system can reach the level of 0.667 ppm, which can serve as a reference for the application of PAS in insulation fault diagnosis.

This work investigated the potential of using ultraviolet photoacoustic spectroscopy to detect trace SO₂, which provided an ideal replacement of infrared-laser-based detection system. In this paper, a photoacoustic detection system using LED with a low light power was established. Low light power requirement can expand the options of light sources accordingly. In this paper, the absorption characteristics of SO₂ in the presented detection system and ultraviolet range were studied. And the detection limit of the presented system was given. Both of which can provide reference to SO₂ detection in ambient SF₆.
