The oil concentration as a petroleum quality parameter is an eternal mystery that determines the oil value. We report detection of crude oil refractive index (RI) changes by modified polymer optical fiber (POF) sensor which is prepared via removing the majority of cladding part until ~ 100 nm thickn...
