- This joint paper presents a novel solution for all-fibre modulator and switcher based on the local surface plasmon resonance effect of gold nanoparticles coated microfiber. This paper is significant because it provides a low loss and low-cost solution for all-fibre modulation for all-optical communications. This result is part of our systematic investigations with recent publications (Opt. Lett. 44, 1092-1095 (2019), and Sensors and Sensors and Actuators A 301 (2020)). Patents have been filed and our international partners (Harbin Engineering University, Guilin University of Electronics Technology) are currently seeking a commercialisation license.
