A B S T R A C T A device for producing a light signal corresponding to the re- fractive index of a fluid medium comprises an elongated light-con- ducting body consisting of an input section and an output section connected to each other by an intermediate curved section adapted for immersion in said fluid. This curved section is provided with a plurality of curvatures arranged successively and bent alternate- ly in opposite directions, whereby light passing by refraction in- to said fluid undergoes a notably greater variation, as a function of the refractive index of said fluid medium, than can be obtained with a curved section bent in a simple direction. A light signal is thus provided with a high sensitivity.
