Detection of Ethanol in Human Breath Using Optical Fiber Long Period Grating Coated with Metal-Organic Frameworks

An optical fiber sensor for ethanol detection in exhaled breath has been developed. It has been fabricated by functionalizing a Long Period Grating with a metal-organic framework, ZIF-8. The sensor’s response was tested by exposure to exhaled breath of a person before and after the ingestion of alco...
