Abstract
We propose and demonstrate a fiber optic strain sensor based on a simple splice between a thin core fiber and a piece of conventional single-mode fiber. Mode dispersion generates an interference reflection spectrum sensitive to strain and temperature. The sensor offers a competitive strain sensitivity of 2.4 pm/μɛ, good linearity (R2=0.9969), and a cursory repeatability analysis yielded variation. The thermal studies indicate minimal cross-sensitivity (2.9 μɛ/°C). The sensor offers a simple implementation without any intricate manufacturing.
