Abstract

Abstract: A single mode fibre core is laterally exposed to a periodic pattern of powerful UV laser light to create an optical sensor called an FBG. The exposure results in a long-lasting rise in the fiber's core's refractive index (ncore), producing fixed index modulation known as grating (Λ). A specific wavelength of input light, known as the Bragg wavelength or Bragg related to grating period, must be reflected by the grating inside the fibre optic core while transmitting all other wavelengths. FBG operates as intended by using the regular variations in the single mode fibre core's refractive index, a Bragg reflector can be constructed on an optical fibre. A specific wavelength of light will be reflected and all others will be transmitted as it passes through the FBG. A shift in the wavelength of the light reflected when the temperature or strain surrounding the grating changes is seen.
