چکیده
Experimental and theoretical investigation of a nonlinear response of a two-mode fiber interferometer to axial strain is described. It is discovered that the nonlinearity dramatically increases as the wavelength approaches the cutoff wavelength of the second-order mode (LP(11)).

Novel Fiber Optic Sensor Based on In-line Core-cladding Intermodal Interferometer and Photonic Crystal Fiber
− We propose a simple all-fiber structure based on intermodal interference between a core and a cladding mode of an endlessly single-mode photonic crystal fiber section sandwiched between a lead-in and lead-out SMF-28 fiber. The sensitivities to strain, pressure and temperature are measured. The interferometer is compared to an interferometer based on LP01-LP02 SMF-28 fiber and to a PCF-based t...
متن کاملReduction of semiconductor laser diode phase and amplitude noise in interferometric fiber optic sensors.
An optical configuration employing two conventional Michelson interferometers and a fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer connected in parallel is used to demonstrate the principle of common mode rejection of both the amplitude and frequency noise of a semiconductor laser. Common mode noise rejection is maximized when the outputs of the two interferometers with matched path imbalance, fringe visibil...
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 کاملWhite-light interferometric fiber-optic strain sensor from three-peak-wavelength broadband LED source.
A white-light fiber-optic interferometer working in the spatial domain, using a special three-peak-wavelength LED as a light source and one of the two arms of the Michelson interferometer as a strain sensor, is presented. Based on the Gaussian spectrum distribution function, a simple spectrum-decomposing method is used to describe the special three-peak-wavelength LED source. Experimental and t...
متن کامل1 x N star coupler as a distributed fiber-optic strain sensor in a white-light interferometer.
A novel technique of using a 1 x N star fiber optic coupler as a distributed strain sensor in a white-light interferometer to measure the distribution of strain is presented. The measuring principle and 1 x 4 star coupler with four fiber optic strain sensors are demonstrated. The experiment is performed with four sensors attached to a combination plastic specimen.
