Nonlinear Hydraulic Pressure Response of an Improved Fiber Tip Interferometric High-Pressure Sensor
We demonstrate a silica diaphragm-based fiber tip Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI) for high-pressure (40 MPa) sensing. By using a fiber tip polishing technique, the thickness of the silica diaphragm could be precisely controlled and the pressure ...

A High-Strength Strain Sensor Based on a Reshaped Micro-Air-Cavity
We demonstrate a high-strength strain sensor based on a micro-air-cavity reshaped through repeating arc discharge. The strain sensor has a micro-scale cavity, approximate plane reflection, and large wall thickness, contributing to a broad free spectrum ...
