Plastic optical fibers

Proceedings of the International Conference and Workshop on Emerging Trends in Technology, 2010
This paper deals with the analysis of the current POF market trends and its estimated growth in the vital sectors in the years to come. Plastic optical fibers have now come into the limelight since they have become an apparent middle ground between copper and glass optical fibers.

Strain transfer theory of industrialized optical fiber-based sensors in civil engineering: A review on measurement accuracy, design and calibration

Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 2019
Optical fiber sensors are the most promising technique in monitoring physical and chemical variables of civil structures. For the brittle material characteristics, a bare sensing fiber is prone to breakage under the shear or torsional action existed in ...

A Comprehensive Review of Optical Fiber Refractometers: Toward a Standard Comparative Criterion

Laser & Photonics reviews, 2019
Thanks to the peculiarities of optical fiber and its ability to be combined with nanotechnology, precise and accurate measurements of the changes in optical properties (i.e., refractive index) of the medium surrounding the fiber are becoming possible ...

Fiber-Optic Vibrometer

SPIE Proceedings, 1984
The engeneerized prototipe of a fiber-optic sensor useful for vibration measurement in hostile environments is presented.The vibrometer is essentially based on a "differential" heterodyne Michelson-type interferometer in which the reference beam and the sensing beam are both guided, with orthogonal polarization, by the same single-mode polarization ...

Review of optical fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometers with micro-cavity fabricated by femtosecond laser and sensing applications

Optics and lasers in engineering, 2019
In recent years, optical fiber sensors have become most popular due to their unique advantages. A review of optical fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) with micro-cavity fabricated by femtosecond (fs) laser was presented. The sizes of most cavities

Optical fibers and their applications

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1989
Abstract Fiber optics have become in the last few years an extremely attractive method of data transfer. A short review of their properties and of their applications is given, together with some feelings from personal experience of the author.
