Title :
Non-Invasive Fiber-Optic Glucose Sensor Based on Stimulated Raman Scattering
Author_Institution :
Johns Hopkins Univ., Baltimore
Abstract :
We report an experimental investigation of detecting the concentration of glucose level, non-invasively using a laser sensing technique. The method is based on stimulated Raman scatting using a fixed wavelength and a wavelength swept fiber laser as a signal and pump laser, respectively.
