Abstract
A two-dimensional vector bending sensor that is both compact and simple is proposed and demonstrated, based on an edge-core cladding-type fiber Bragg grating (ECLFBG) inscribed in an edge-core. The ECLFBG is written parallel to the edge-core using a femtosecond laser point-by-point technique. The reflection spectrum of this ECLFBG varies significantly depending on the magnitude and direction of the fiber's bend. Combining the trend and sensitivity of the wavelength shift and reflection intensity variations of the ECLFBG, the bending magnitude and direction can be measured simultaneously.
