Abstract

Filament arrays were inscribed off-axis in the core of standard single-mode telecommunication fiber, using femtosecond laser pulses. The flexible line-by-line writing formed uniform, parallel filaments, permitting Bragg grating sensing of the photoelastic response from inside of the narrow grating plane. Active monitoring of the Bragg resonance wavelength while driving a lateral fiber tip displacement directly informed on the fiber mechanics when coupled with opto-mechanical modelling. Overlaying of parallel and orthogonal gratings further provided a strongly contrasting azimuthal sensitivity, which paves the way for multi-dimensional displacement sensing with improved precision.
