Polarimetric temperature sensor: extinction ratio and sensing length examination
We theoretically and experimentally investigated the influences of the sensing and lead fiber length, the extinction ratio of the input polarizer, and the coherence properties of the light source on polarimetric temperature measurements. We have shown that there is a Read More …
In-line short cavity Fabry-Perot strain sensor for quasi distributed measurement utilizing standard OTDR
This paper presents an in-line, short cavity Fabry-Perot fiber optic strain sensor. A short air cavity inside a single-mode fiber is created by the fusion splicing of appropriately micro machined fiber tips. A precise tuning of the cavity length is Read More …
All-fiber, long-active-length Fabry-Perot strain sensor
This paper presents a high-sensitivity, all-silica, all-fiber Fabry- Perot strain-sensor. The proposed sensor provides a long active length, arbitrary length of Fabry-Perot cavity, and low intrinsic temperature sensitivity. The sensor was micro-machined from purposely-developed sensor-forming fiber that is etched and Read More …
Photoplethysmographic heart rate and blood pressure estimation in dynamic condition
This paper describes a novel, unobtrusive photoplethysmographic device and experiments conducted in a dynamic condition. The device complements a photoplethysmograph with a dynamometer, an accelerometer, and a thermometer. We built it in the door handle of a refrigerator and made Read More …
Miniature all-fiber Fabry-Perot sensor for simultaneous measurement of pressure and temperature
This article presents a miniature, high-sensitivity, all-silica Fabry-Perot fiber-optic sensor suitable for simultaneous measurements of pressure and temperature. The proposed sensor diameter does not exceed 125 µm and consists of two low-finesse Fabry-Perot resonators created at the tip of an Read More …
Miniature all-glass robust pressure sensor
This paper describes a newly designed all-glass miniature (~ 125 µm) fiber-optic pressure sensor design that is appropriate for high-volume manufacturing. The fabrication process is based on the chemical etching of specially-designed silica optical fiber, and involves a low number Read More …
Miniature fiber-optic pressure sensor with a polymer diaphragm
The fabrication and experimental investigation of a miniature optical fiber pressure sensor for biomedical and industrial applications are described. The sensor measures only 125 µm in diameter. The essential element is a thin polymer diaphragm that is positioned inside the Read More …
