Firefly-inspired ESOT FiSensor transforms optical cables
The architecture of the ESOT FiSensor for multimodal physical signal sensing and transmission.
(a) Ssignal-sensing process and application scenarios of the multimodal ESOT FiSensor. (b) Structural
composition and fabrication process of the ESOT FiSensor cell. (c) Different types of printed lines on the
surface of a nylon fibre with a diameter of 60μm, and complex printed patterns on quartz fibre and polymer
fibre surfaces. (d) Comparison of sensitivity attenuation between the electrical sensor and the ESOT FiSensor
after 50 m transmission. (e) Signal performance comparison of the electrical sensor and ESOT FiSensor
under electromagnetic interference of 20 Hz. (Credit: National Science Review, 2026; nwag250, https://doi.org/10.1093/nsr/nwag250)
