Abstract
This paper describes a simple, optically passive detection scheme for in-line Fabry-Perot etalon (ILFE) sensors that is also useful for intrinsic Fabry-Perot (IFP) and extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) sensors. This detection scheme is based on two spectrally shiffed Bragg wavelengths from in-line Bragg gratings to produce two quadrature phase shifted signals from the spectral transfer function of the Fabry-Perot sensor. Using the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) from an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) as a low-coherence, high-power broad-band source, the passive detection technique is used to demonstrate the use of ILFE sensors in high strain rate dynamics studies. This study is designed to characterize the high strain rate response of optical fiber sensors and test their ability to monitor dynamic strain changes resulting from one-dimensional stress wave propagation.
