Abstract
A novel high-precision photonic crystal fiber-based pressure sensor with low-temperature sensitivity is proposed. The sensor is fabricated by fusion splicing a photonic crystal fiber with a hollow core fiber immersed in polydimethylsiloxane. Owing to the special structure of the photonic crystal fiber, the temperature cross-coupling effect can be minimized and the membrane shape can be controlled. Experimental results indicate that the pressure sensitivity of the FP pressure sensor is 2.47 nm/kPa, 5.37 times the temperature sensitivity of 0.46 nm/°C. The proposed FP pressure sensor has broad application prospects in chemical and biological detection for monitoring pressure in real time.
