Owing to the fast responsive fiber optic pH sensing, silica nanomatrix (SNM) and titania nanomatrix (TNM) are synthesized by the sol-gel method at low temperatures. Cresol red (CR) is immobilized within SNM and TNM for sensing evaluation. Crack-free, crystallinity and porous surfaces with an average...
