A strain reflection-based fiber optic sensor using thin core and standard single-mode fibers
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose and demonstrate a fiber optic strain sensor based on simple splice between thin core piece of conventional single-mode fiber. Mode dispersion generates an interference reflection spectrum sensitive to temperature. The offers competitive sensitivity 2.4 pm/μɛ, good linearity (R2=0.9969), cursory repeatability analysis yielded variation. thermal studies indicate minimal cross-sensitivity (2.9 μɛ/°C). implementation without any intricate manufacturing.

Reflective fiber-optic refractometer based on a thin-core fiber tailored Bragg grating reflection.
A novel reflective refractometer based on a thin-core fiber (TCF) sandwiched between a leading single-mode fiber (SMF) and a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) imprinted SMF stub was demonstrated. The reflection from the fiber stub occurs in two well-defined wavelength bands, corresponding to the Bragg core mode and cladding modes. The TCF section functions as a tailorable bridge between the FBG core mo...
متن کاملCompact fiber-optic curvature sensor based on super-mode interference in a seven-core fiber.
A compact, low loss, and highly sensitive optical fiber curvature sensor is presented. The device consists of a few-millimeter-long piece of seven-core fiber spliced between two single-mode fibers. When the optical fiber device is kept straight, a pronounced interference pattern appears in the transmission spectrum. However, when the device is bent, a spectral shift of the interference pattern ...
متن کاملIn-Line Fiber Optic Interferometric Sensors in Single-Mode Fibers
In-line fiber optic interferometers have attracted intensive attention for their potential sensing applications in refractive index, temperature, pressure and strain measurement, etc. Typical in-line fiber-optic interferometers are of two types: Fabry-Perot interferometers and core-cladding-mode interferometers. It's known that the in-line fiber optic interferometers based on single-mode fibers...
متن کاملLow-cost high-performance fiber-optic pH sensor based on thin-core fiber modal interferometer.
A new fiber-optic pH sensor based on a thin-core fiber modal interferometer with electrostatic self-assembled nanocoating is presented. After inserting a segment of thin-core fiber into a standard single-mode fiber, high-order cladding modes are excited and interfere with the core mode to form an in-fiber modal interferometer. The side surface of the sensor is then deposited with poly(allylamin...
متن کاملMultiplexed displacement fiber sensor using thin core fiber exciter.
This letter reports a multiplexed optical displacement sensor using a thin core fiber (TCF) exciter. The TCF exciter is followed by a stripped single mode optical fiber. A small section of buffer is used as the movable component along the single mode fiber. Ultra-weak cladding mode reflection (< - 75 dB) was employed to probe the refractive index discontinuity between the air and buffer coating...
