Abstract
The cladding mode reorganization in high refractive-index (HRI)-coated long period
gratings (LPGs) is theoretically analyzed and experimentally observed with the aim of
exploring the sensitivity of the resonance wavelength to the change of the refractive
index in a nanoscale overlay. Experimental results show that the transition between
cladding modes and overlay modes occurs when the refractive index of the liquid
crystal (LC) overlay is changed from 1.477 to 1.515 by increasing its temperature
