A Microfluidic-Based Fabry-Pérot Gas Sensor

We developed a micro-gas detector based on a Fabry-Pérot (FP) cavity embedded in a microfluidic channel. The detector was fabricated in two steps: a silicon substrate was bonded to a glass slide curved with a micro-groove, forming a microfluidic FP cavity; then an optical fiber was inserted through a hole drilled at the center of the groove into the microfluidic FP cavity, forming an FP cavity....

Fiber-optic Temperature Sensor Semiconductor Etalon

This paper describes a fiber-optic temperature sensor that uses a spectrum-modulating Sic etalon. The spectral output of this type of sensor may be analyzed to obtain a tem.+ perature measurement which is largely independent of the transmission properties of the m sensor's fiber-optic link. A highly precise laboratory-type spectrometer is described in detail, and this instrument is used to stud...

Miniature fiber-optic force sensor based on low-coherence Fabry-Pérot interferometry for vitreoretinal microsurgery

During vitreoretinal surgery, the surgeon manipulates retinal tissue with tool-to-tissue interaction forces below the human sensory threshold. A force sensor (FS) integrated with conventional surgical tools may significantly improve the surgery outcome by providing tactile feedback to the surgeon. We designed and built a surgical tool integrated with a miniature FS with an outer diameter smalle...

High-resolution and fast-response fiber-optic temperature sensor using silicon Fabry-Pérot cavity.

We report a fiber-optic sensor based on a silicon Fabry-Pérot cavity, fabricated by attaching a silicon pillar on the tip of a single-mode fiber, for high-resolution and high-speed temperature measurement. The large thermo-optic coefficient and thermal expansion coefficient of the silicon material give rise to an experimental sensitivity of 84.6 pm/°C. The excellent transparency and large refra...
