Problem: How to optically detect molecular species (in a hot smokestack)?
Optical fibers have been used to transmit light with very low loss, but using the same technology to get light to interact with the environment as a fiber sensor has been problematic.
A new approach is shown to provide the capability for light to interact with the surrounding environment using a novel fiber geometry in a cost effective and sensitive way.
An example implementation of a fiber diffuser is presented.
