Microscale insight into the proton concentration during electrolytic reaction via an optical microfiber: potential for microcurrent monitoring by a dielectric probe by Yunyun Huang, Jiaxuan Liang, Haotian Wu, Pengwei Chen, Aoxiang Xiao, Bai-Ou Guan

“…The microfiber is capable of detecting microcurrent through monitoring the localized proton concentration signal with a pH resolution of 0.0052 pH units. By sensing the refractive index variation surrounding the sensor induced by the interaction between local proton concentration changes and oxidizer-treated microfiber surface through the evanescent field, this sensing mechanism effectively avoids the interference of the electromagnetic material on the performance of the tested system. …”
