A high-performance fiber-optic relative humidity (RH) sensor was prepared by layer-by-layer self-assembly of polycation, poly (4-vinylpyridinium chloride), and polyanion, sodium alginate, on the surface of a thin-core fiber modal interferometer. The process of layer-by-layer self-assembly was monito...
