Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by the nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, has led to significant ecological and economic losses in pine forests worldwide. Historically, several metrics, including the number of PWD-infected trees, the proportion of PWD-infected pine sub-compartments, and the occurr...

An approach to improve the side-coupling ratio of the macro-bend polymer optical fiber (POF) coupler is proposed in this paper. Two naked POFs are twisted and twined around a cylinder to achieve continuous liquid level sensing. Through filling the gap between the two twisted POFs with UV optical cem...
