A fiber-optic temperature sensor

Automation and Remote Control, 2013
In this paper we demonstrate the feasibility of designing a fiber-optic temperature sensor based on the principles of low-coherent tandem interferometry; the sensitive element represents a plane-parallel plate produced from fused silica of thickness 500 µm (the corresponding measurement range is between 40 and 90°C).

Fiber Optical Intensity Sensors

IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 1983
Fiber optical intensity sensors are made of optical fibers connected to a miniaturized optical sensor which is based on either a mechanical light valve, a light scattering process, a photoemission or photoabsorption process, or the transmission property of the optical fiber itself.

Optical fiber acoustic sensor

Applied Optics, 1977
A new class of hydrophones is currently being developed, which utilize optical beams and interface directly to fiber optic transmission and processing links. Some of these sensors employ an optical fiber itself as the transduction element and possess significant advantages and versatility.

Fiber optic curvature sensor

IEEE SENSORS 2014 Proceedings, 2014
A fiber optic curvature sensor based on discrete Fiber Bragg gratings inscribed in a multi-core fiber is presented. The individual cores of the multi-core fiber are each interrogated by a custom-built spectrometer running at up to 20 kHz. They are interfaced with a custom-tapered combiner of single-core fibers fusion spliced to the multi-core fiber ...

Optical-Fiber Medical Sensors

MRS Bulletin, 2002
AbstractOptical-fiber sensors can be placed on the skin or inside the human body for the direct measurement of biomedical parameters. This article presents an overview of the most recent applications of optical-fiber sensors for biomedical purposes and those currently under development.

Multimode optical fiber sensors

1995
Of the properties of light which can be conveniently modulated, phase and polarization information are immediately lost upon entering a multimode optical fiber. This leaves intensity as the only transmittable property available for use as a modulation sensitive parameter.

A fiber optic PCO2 sensor

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1983
The theory, construction and performance of a catheter tip optical PCO2 probe is described. The sensor, called the Opticap, is made with plastic fiber optics. One fiber carries light to the sensitive tip which is a silicone rubber tube 0.6 mm dia. X 1.0 mm long filled with a phenol red-KHCO3 solution.

Fiber-optical sensors as transducers

IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2003
The paper considers a possibility of using fiber-optical sensors (FOS) as transducers. There are described and compared main advantages and disadvantages of analogue and pulse FOS. There are presenting results of estimating of metrological and quantitative precise opportunities of analog FOS.

Fiber-optic sensor for humidity

Optics Letters, 1989
A novel fiber-optic humidity sensor is described. It is based on reversible sorption of water from the ambient atmosphere in a porous thin-film interferometer that sits on the tip of a fiber. The sorbed water changes the refractive index of the thin films and thus the reflectivity of the interferometer; the resulting modulation of the reflected ...
