| Zusammenfassung: | A method to assemble optical fiber devices and a fiber optic sensor is provided. It features a small adhesive joint between the fiber and a capillary tube by means of a small recess carved on the side of the fiber. This recess acts as a reservoir for the adhesive during the insertion of the fiber inside the tube. Then, the tube is heated so that the adhesive swells out of the recess to make the joint between the tube and the fiber. This method is used to assemble a fiber optic Fabry-Perot interferometer. This interferometer can be used as a sensor for the measurement of a number of physical parameters. |
