ABSTRACT

The operation principle and construction of the waveguide optical chemical sensor control of absorbing type is considered. Characteristics of a sensor element on the basis of the waveguide structure generated on a Y-cutoff of lithium niobate for control of level of gaseous substances, in particular ammonia are experimentally researched. Potential possibilities of data application of instruments in different industries, ecology and telecommunication technologies are considered.
