The design and fabrication of a miniature fiber Fabry-Perot pressure sensor with a diameter of 125 μm are presented. The essential element in the process is a thin SiO2 diaphragm that is fusion spliced at the hollow end of an Read More …
This paper presents a method for the efficient production of all-fiber semi reflective mirrors suitable for fiber sensors and other all-fiber device applications. The mirrors are obtained by the short duration etching of a standard single mode fiber in hydrofluoric Read More …
This paper presents an optical fiber-field access device suitable for use in different in-line fiber-optics systems and fiber-based photonics components. The proposed device u tilizes a thin silica micro-wire positioned in-between two lead-in single mode fibers. The thin micro-wire acts Read More …
This paper presents a maskless micromachining process that can reform or reshape a section of an optical fiber into a complex 3-D photonic microstructure. This proposed micromachining process is based on the etching rate control achieved by the introduction of Read More …
This letter presents a refractive index sensor created at the tip of an optical fiber that utilizes silica nanowire within a radius of between 225 nm and 600 nm, as a sensing element. Sensitivity in excess of 800 nm/RIU was Read More …
This paper presents a highly-sensitive, miniature, all-silica, dual parameter fiber-optic Fabry-Perot sensor, which is suitable for independent measurement of the refractive index and the temperature of the fluid surrounding the sensor. The experimental sensor was produced by a micromachining process Read More …
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 …
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 …
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 …
