Fiber-Bragg-Grating Based Single Axial Mode Fabry-Perot Interferometer and Its Strain and Acceleration Sensing Applications

Based on a rigorous mode theory and considering the wavelength dispersion of fiber Bragg grating (FBG), the conditions necessary for FBG-based Fabry-Perot interferometer (BFPI) to operate in single axial mode (SM) were investigated, as an extension of phase-shifted FBG, by analytical formulas and nu...

Zusammenfassung:Based on a rigorous mode theory and considering the wavelength dispersion of fiber Bragg grating (FBG), the conditions necessary for FBG-based Fabry-Perot interferometer (BFPI) to operate in single axial mode (SM) were investigated, as an extension of phase-shifted FBG, by analytical formulas and numerical simulation. Following the theoretical results, SM-BFPI of very narrow bandpass was designed and fabricated. Using that, the first of its kind to our knowledge, SM-BFPI-based WDM distributed (four-points) strain sensing was demonstrated which had a point-like ultrahigh spatial resolution of 2.1 mm and very high strain precision of
