Up-taper-based Mach–Zehnder interferometer for temperature and strain simultaneous measurement

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A novel all-fiber sensing configuration for simultaneous measurements of temperature and strain based on the up-taper Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) with an in-line embedded fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. This configuration consists of two up-tapers fabricated by an excessive fusion splicing method and a short segment of inscribed FBG. Due to the different responses of the up-taper MZI and the FBG to the uniform variation of temperature and strain, the simultaneous measurement for these two variables could be achieved by real-time monitoring the transmission spectrum. For 0.01 nm wavelength resolution, a resolution of 0.311°C in temperature can be achieved, and the average strain resolution is 10.07 με.
