Abstract
The study focuses on the thermal and temperature sensitivity behavior of an optical fiber sensor device. In this article, a titanium nitride (TiN)-coated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor fabricated using an ion beam sputtering system was investigated. The reflection spectra of the FBG sensor were tested using R-soft optical software to simulate the refractive index sensitivity. In these experiments, the temperature sensitivity of the TiN FBG was measured at temperatures ranging from 100 to 500 °C using an optical spectrum analyzer (OSA). The results showed that the temperature sensitivity of the proposed TiN FBG sensor reached 12.8 pm/°C for the temperature range of 100 to 300 °C and 20.8 pm/°C for the temperature range of 300 to 500 °C. Additionally, we found that the produced oxidation at temperatures of 400–500 °C caused a crack, with the crack becoming more and more obvious at higher and higher temperatures.
Highlights
The safety-related resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) used in nuclear power plants (NPP)require fast dynamic performance [1]
In a study conducted by Rajini-Kumar et al [8], different types of metal-coated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) were tested for their temperature characteristics, and a CrN-coated FBG sensor exhibited a 14.0 pm/◦ C greater temperature sensitivity than a bare FBG [9]
