Bending insensitivity of fiber Bragg gratings in suspended-core optical fibers.
This Letter presents simulation and experimental results that explore bending insensitivity of fiber Bragg gratings in suspended-core optical fibers. The implementation of thin silica bridge in the fibers enhances index contrast of the fiber core and reduces bending-induced strain transfer to the fiber core. This fiber design lead to a reduction of over 7 times in strain-induced fiber Bragg gra...
متن کاملCompact Optical Fiber 3D Shape Sensor Based on a Pair of Orthogonal Tilted Fiber Bragg Gratings
In this work, a compact fiber-optic 3D shape sensor consisting of two serially connected 2° tilted fiber Bragg gratings (TFBGs) is proposed, where the orientations of the grating planes of the two TFBGs are orthogonal. The measurement of the reflective transmission spectrum from the pair of TFBGs was implemented by Fresnel reflection of the cleaved fiber end. The two groups of cladding mode res...
متن کاملNonlinear magneto-optical Bragg gratings.
In magneto-optical gratings the magnetic dipolar coupling superimposed on the electric dipolar one introduces nonreciprocity and spectral discrimination between circular polarization states, measured by a Zeeman-like splitting of the photonic Bragg resonances. In a nonlinear regime the degree of nonreciprocity is modified by the photoinduced interplay of these splittings and their Stark-like sh...
متن کاملOptical Fibre Bragg Gratings for Acoustic Sensors
In this paper, we give a short review of Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors for the detection of acoustic signals, in particular ultrasound. The primary advantage of FBGs as sensing elements is their spectral encoding of the measurand, which can be either strain or temperature. However, spectral decoding methods cannot be utilized to detect high frequency signals due to their inherent low speed....
متن کاملBragg gratings inscription using PMMA polymer optical fibers drawn from preforms with specific thermal pre-treatment
In this work, fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are inscribed in various undoped poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) polymer optical fibres (POFs) using different types of UV lasers and inscription time and their temperature and strain sensitivities are investigated. The polymer optical fiber Bragg gratings (POFBGs) were inscribed using two UV lasers: a continuous UV HeCd @325 nm laser and a pulsed UV K...
