Investigation of Fabry Perot Interferometer Temperature Sensor Based on Hollow Core Anti-Resonance Optical Fiber
A Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) temperature sensor was proposed by splicing a self-made hollow core anti-resonance fiber (HC-ARF) between two single mode fibers (SMFs). The HC-ARF was 2 mm long and one SMF was 20 mm in length. The SMF end face was coated with an Au film. When temperature varied f...

| Sumario: | A Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) temperature sensor was proposed by splicing a self-made hollow core anti-resonance fiber (HC-ARF) between two single mode fibers (SMFs). The HC-ARF was 2 mm long and one SMF was 20 mm in length. The SMF end face was coated with an Au film. When temperature varied from 45 °C to 85 °C, a sensitivity of 81.1 pm/°C was obtained at the waveband of 1550 nm∼1555 nm. When temperature varied from 35 °C to 95 °C, a sensitivity of 138.8 pm/°C was obtained at the waveband of 1571 nm∼1581 nm. Theoretical analysis suggested that the sensitivity of this proposed sensor can be easily adjusted by varying the length of the Au-coated SMF via the Vernier effect, which was confirmed by a subsequent experiment where the SMF length was varied from 20 mm to 170 mm. This work offers a simple sensitivity control method, and the proposed sensor is easy to manufacture, compact in structure, and convenient in performance control, which can be applied for a wide range of biological and chemical applications. |
