一种高温下高灵敏光纤光栅温度传感器的制作方法

提出一种充分利用光纤光栅所能承受的应变量, 显著提高了光纤光栅温度传感器在高温下的灵敏度的方法.在常温下制作传感器时, 根据传感器需要测量的温度设置光纤光栅的预松长度;当温度升高到需要测量的温度时, 光纤光栅才开始被拉紧, 传感器才开始以高灵敏度方式工作.分析了预松长度和工作温度之间的关系.实验中, 当预松长度分别为0.2 mm、0.5 mm、0.6 mm时, 工作温度分别上升了25 ℃、50 ℃、61 ℃, 并且灵敏度(约675 pm/℃)基本不变.实验结果和理论分析吻合, 较好地证实了该方法的有效性.     

A high sensitive fiber Bragg grating cryogenic temperature sensor

At cryogenic temperature, a fiber Bragg grating （FBG） temperature sensor with controllable sensitivity and variable measurement range is demonstrated by using bimetal configuration. In experiments, sensitivities of -51.2, -86.4, and -520 pm/K are achieved by varying the lengths of the metals. Measurement ranges of 293 - 290.5, 283 - 280.5, and 259 - 256.5 K are achieved by shortening the distance of the gap among the metals.     

A high sensitive fiber Bragg grating strain sensor with automatic temperature compensation

A high sensitive fiber Bragg grating （FBG） strain sensor with automatic temperature compensation is demonstrated. FBG is axially linked with a stick and their free ends are fixed to the measured object. When the measured strain changes, the stick does not change in length, but the FBG does. When the temperature changes, the stick changes in length to pull the FBG to realize temperature compensation. In experiments, 1.45 times strain sensitivity of bare FBG with temperature compensation of less than 0.1 nm Bragg wavelength drift over 100 ℃ shift is achieved.
