Polarization properties of interferometrically interrogated fiber Bragg grating and tandem-interferometer strain sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Lead sensitivity in low-coherence interferometric fiber-optic sensors is a well-known problem. It can lead to a severe degradation in the sensor resolution and accuracy through its effect on the fringe visibility and interferometric phase.

Zero-birefringence pressure-sensitive adhesives

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2012
We have developed zero-birefringence pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) that exhibit almost no birefringence at any orientation of polymer chains. To evaluate the birefringence of PSAs quantitatively, we report a novel birefringence-measurement method ...
