Discrimination of temperature and strain with a single FBG based on the birefringence effect.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We will demonstrate a new technique to discriminate the temperature and strain effects using a single fiber Bragg grating (FBG). The birefringence is typically induced during FBG inscription, and it is manifested as polarization-dependent loss (PDL), and it is defined as the maximum change in the transmitted power for polarizations. Two independent measurements of the resonance wavelength shift and the changes of PDL can discriminate those effects.

A polarimetric Distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) laser sensor in a low birefringent Er-doped fiber has been proposed. The spectral overlap of two uniform fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) has been employed as filtering technique to achieve a Single Longitudinal Mode (SLM) regime. By measuring the RF beat frequency between the two orthogonal polarized lasing modes and the absolute wavelength of one mod...

In this Letter, we reported on an ultrahigh birefringence photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with a germanium-doped elliptical core, which is fabricated in our lab using the stack-and-draw method. An ultrahigh birefringence of 1.1×10(-2) is obtained experimentally, which is close to the theoretical value of 1.4×10(-2) at the wavelength of 1550 nm. To our knowledge, this is the highest birefringence r...

A reflection fiber inclinometer is proposed and experimentally demonstrated based on two linearly polarized (LP) modes coupling. The configuration consists of a section of polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF) containing a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) splicing with single mode fiber (SMF). Bending the PMF in the upstream of FBG can induce an additional birefringence of PMF, which results in the int...
