FIBER OPTIC REFRACTIVE INDEX SENSOR USING A METAL CLAD ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A refractive index FOCS has a thin metal film clad on a fiber optic core so that transmission through the core is strongly affected by the refractive index of a surrounding solvent. The clad is made of platinum, or also of gold, rhodium or palladium. With a fluorescent tip, the changes in the fluorescent signal are a measure of the solvent refractive index. With a reflective tip, the changes in the reflected signal are measured. In a linear configuration, source and detector are placed at opposite ends of the fiber and changes in the transmitted signal are measured as a function of solvent refractive index.
