Abstract
A novel dual-parameter sensor created by fusion splicing single mode fiber (SMF) and hollow core silica tube (HCST) is experimentally demonstrated for simultaneous strain and temperature measurement based on hybrid structured fiberoptic Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) via phase demodulation. By the phase demodulation in the spatial frequency domain, strain sensitivities of -0.002rad/μe and 0.0006rad/μe are respectively obtained for air-cavity and the silica-cavity with the strain range from 0μe to 1000μe, and the temperature sensitivities of -0.0002rad/°C and -0.01rad/°C are respectively for air-cavity and silica-cavity with the temperature range from 50°C to 450°C. Therefore, the different sensing characteristics of silica-cavity and air-cavity to strain and temperature show that this structure can be further developed to concurrently sense strain and temperature.
