Abstract
Metal coatings can protect the fragile optical fiber sensors and extend their life in harsh environments. However, simultaneous high-temperature strain sensing in a metal-coated optical fiber remains relatively unexplored. In this study, a nickel-coated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) cascaded with an air bubble cavity Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) fiber optic sensor was developed for simultaneous high temperature and strain sensing. The sensor was successfully tested at 545 °C for 0-1000 µɛ, and the characteristic matrix was used to decouple temperature and strain. The metal layer allows easy attachment to metal surfaces that operate at high temperatures, enabling sensor-object integration. As a result, the metal-coated cascaded optical fiber sensor has the potential to be used in real-world structural health monitoring.
