Micro-displacement sensors based on plastic photonic bandgap Bragg fibers

, 2013
We demonstrate an amplitude-based micro-displacement sensor that uses a plastic photonic bandgap Bragg fiber with one end coated with a silver layer. The reflection intensity of the Bragg fiber is characterized in response to different displacements (or ...
