Optical fiber temperature sensors have been widely employed in enormous areas ranging from electric power industry, medical treatment, ocean dynamics to aerospace. Recently, graphene optical fiber temperature sensors attract tremendous attention for their merits of simple structure and direct power detecting ability. However, these sensors based on transfer techniques still have limitations in the relatively low sensitivity or distortion of the transmission characteristics, due to the unsuitable Fermi level of graphene and the destruction of fiber structure, respectively. Here, we propose a tunable and highly sensitive temperature sensor based on graphene photonic crystal fiber (Gr-PCF) with the non-destructive integration of graphene into the holes of PCF. This hybrid structure promises the intact fiber structure and transmission mode, which efficiently enhances the temperature detection ability of graphene. From our simulation, we find that the temperature sensitivity can be electrically tuned over four orders of magnitude and achieve up to ~ 3.34×10-3 dB/(cm·℃) when the graphene Fermi level is ~ 35 meV higher than half the incident photon energy. Additionally, this sensitivity can be further improved by ~ 10 times through optimizing the PCF structure (such as the fiber hole diameter) to enhance the light-matter interaction. Our results provide a new way for the design of the highly sensitive temperature sensors and broaden applications in all-fiber optoelectronic devices. 相似文献

High-sensitivity temperature sensor based on an alcohol-filled photonic crystal fiber loop mirror 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A compact temperature sensor based on a fiber loop mirror (FLM) combined with an alcohol-filled high-birefringence photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The output of the FLM is an interference spectrum with many resonant dips, of which the wavelengths are quite sensitive to the change of the refractive index of the filled alcohol for the interference of the FLM. Simulation analysis predicts a high temperature sensitivity, and experimental results show it reaches up to 6.6 nm/°C for the 6.1-cm-long PCF used in the FLM. 相似文献

The gas sensing properties of index-guided photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with air-core are investigated via full-vector finite element method. The relationships between the gas sensing properties of index-guided PCF with air-core and the fiber parameters, including the fiber length and the operating wavelength, have been discussed. The simulations show that the gas sensing sensitivity of the fiber increases significantly as the diameter of the air holes increases, and it decreases with the holes pitch. Compared with the traditional PCF, there is a great improvement in the sensing properties of our design. The results are helpful for designing high performance PCF for gases or liquids sensing. 相似文献

温度对液晶填充光子晶体光纤传输特性的影响 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
利用液晶的折射率是温度和波长函数的特性,在光子晶体光纤(PCF)芯区的空气柱中填充向列相液晶,通过改变温度来改变液晶的折射率,构成了一种温度凋制光子晶体光纤.用阶跃有效折射率模型研究了温度对这种光子晶体光纤在不同光波长时传输特性的影响,并进行了数值计算.结果表明液晶填充使光子晶体光纤的色散减小,由于折射率对温度和波长变化敏感,改变温度可以使光纤在长波长区域出现单模传输,在短波长时不会出现单模传输,即使包层相对孔径很小也不会出现无截止单模传输.温度升高使光纤的色散值增大,零色散波长向短波长方向移动.这些特性对温度调制光子晶体光纤器件的设计和应用具有一定的参考意义. 相似文献

We report on a microscopic Fabry-Perot interferometer whose cavity is a bubble trapped inside an optical fiber. The microcavity is formed by pressuring a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with large voids during fusion splicing with a conventional single-mode fiber. The technique allows achieving high repeatability and full control over the cavity size and shape. It was found that the size of the PCF voids contributes to control the cavity size independently of the pressure in the PCF. Our devices exhibit a record fringe contrast of 30?dB (visibility of 0.999) due to the ellipsoidal cavity whose surfaces compensate for the diffraction of the reflected beam. The strain sensitivity of the interferometers is higher when the cavities are ellipsoidal than when they are spherical. 相似文献

A simple and compact refractive index sensor is demonstrated by tapering a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) in-line interferometer. The PCF is spliced between two single-mode fibers and tapered via hydrofluoric acid etching. Its sensitivity in liquid is more than an order of magnitude larger than the untapered one. By optimizing the etching process, we can fabricate more uniformly and thinly tapered PCF interferometers with higher sensitivity in the future. 相似文献

Design and analysis of thermally tunable liquid crystal filled hybrid photonic crystal fiber coupler
We propose a novel tunable photonic crystal fiber (PCF) coupler scheme, that the light is coupled between a total internal reflection (TIR) guiding core and a photonic bandgap (PBG) guiding core. By introducing the thermo-optic responsive nematic liquid crystals (NLC) into the air holes around the PBG core, the hybrid PCF based coupler exhibits enhanced thermal tunability. The thermo-optical characteristics of the proposed coupler are numerically studied using finite element method (FEM) and beam propagation method (BPM). The proposed design can find promising applications in filtering and sensing devices. 相似文献

A large-core air-clad photonic crystal fiber-based sensing structure is described, which is sensitive to refractive index. The sensing head is based on multimodal interference, and relies on a single-mode/large-core air-clad photonic crystal fiber (PCF)/single-mode fiber configuration. Using two distinct large-core air-clad PCF geometries-one for refractive index measurement and the other for temperature compensation, it was possible to implement a sensing head sensitive to refractive index changes in water as induced by temperature variations. The results indicated the high sensitivity of this sensing head to refractive index variations of water, and a resolution of 3.4×10(-5) refractive index units could be achieved. 相似文献

In this paper we present an interferometer based on photonic crystal fiber (PCF) tip ended with a solid silica-sphere for refractive index sensing. The sensor is fabricated by splicing one end of the holey PCF to a single mode fiber (SMF) and applying arc at the other end to form a solid sphere. The sensor has been experimentally tested for refractive index and temperature sensing by monitoring its wavelength shift. Measurement results show that the sensor has the resolution of the order of 8.7×10(-4) over the refractive index range of 1.33-1.40, and temperature sensitivity of the order of 10 pm/°C in the range of 20-100 °C. 相似文献

We propose a surface long-period grating (LPG) based on a D-shaped photonic crystal fiber (PCF). The D-shaped PCF is fabricated
by a side-polishing technique. The surface LPG based on periodic patterns of photoresist (PR) is formed by using the spin-coating
and the standard contact lithography methods. Resonant coupling is created by the surface PR-LPG in the D-shaped PCF. The
resonant peak shifts to longer wavelength as the ambient index is increased and shifts to shorter wavelength as the temperature
is increased. The total wavelength shift is measured to be 122 nm in the refractive index range from 1 to 1.45 and the temperature
sensitivity is measured to be −0.3 nm/°C in the temperature range from 30 to 100°C. 相似文献

A miniature fiber-optic refractometer based on Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI) has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The sensing head consists of a short section of photonics crystal fiber (PCF) spliced to a single mode fiber (SMF), in which the end-face of the PCF is etched to remove holey structure with hydrofluoric (HF) acid. A Fabry–Perot interference spectrum is achieved based on the reflections from the fusion splicing interface and the end-face of the core of PCF. The interference fringe is sensitive to the external refractive index (RI) with an intensity-referenced sensitivity of 358.27 dB/RIU ranging from 1.33 to 1.38. The sensor has also been implemented for the concentration measurement of λ-phage DNA solution. In addition, the dip intensity is insensitive to the ambient temperature variation, making it a good candidate for temperature-independent bio-sensing area. 相似文献

Refractive index sensor based on high-order surface plasmon resonance in gold nanofilm coated photonic crystal fiber 下载免费PDF全文
《中国物理 B》2019,(9)
We propose a novel kind of wide-range refractive index optical sensor based on photonic crystal fiber(PCF) covered with nano-ring gold film.The refractive index sensing performance of the PCF sensor is analyzed and simulated by the finite element method(FEM).The refractive index liquid is infiltrated into the cladding air hole of the PCF.By comparing the sensing performance of two kinds of photonic crystal fiber structures, a wide range and high sensitivity structure is optimized.The surface plasmon resonance(SPR) excitation material is chose as gold, and large gold nanorings are embedded around the first cladding air hole of the PCF.The higher order surface plasmon modes are generated in this designed optical fiber structure.The resonance coupling between the fundamental mode and the 5 th order surface plasmon polariton(SPP)modes is excited when the phase matching condition is matched.Therefore, the 3 rd loss peaks appear obvious red-shift with the increase of the analyte refractive index, which shows a remarkable polynomial fitting law.The fitnesses of two structures are 0.99 and 0.98, respectively.When the range of refractive indices is from 1.40 to 1.43, the two kinds of sensors have high linear sensitivities of 1604 nm/RIU and 3978 nm/RIU, respectively. 相似文献

提出了一种基于表面等离子体共振(SPR)效应增强的光子晶体光纤折射率传感器。该传感器结构通过光纤熔接机拼接光子晶体光纤(PCF),在光子晶体光纤中间引入一个空气孔形成PCF-空气孔-PCF的光纤传感结构,随后使用磁控溅射镀膜工艺在其表面沉积一层薄金膜制备而成。实验探究了折射率及温度对传感器的响应。结果表明,在1.333~1.389的折射率范围内,所提出的传感器的平均折射率灵敏度为2 142.52 nm,且测量线性度为0.981,品质因子约13.10。实验结果表明该传感器对温度不敏感。相比于无空气孔的PCF传感结构,引入的空气孔增强了SPR效应,使得传感器拥有良好的共振峰深度。得益于上述优势,该类型传感器有望在生物医学、环境监测等领域得到应用。 相似文献

Theoretical simulation of a novel birefringent photonic crystal fiber with surface plasmon resonance around 1300 nm 下载免费PDF全文
In this paper, a novel birefringent photonic crystal fiber(PCF) with the silver-coated and liquid-filled air-holes along the vertical plane is designed. Simulation results show that the thickness of silver layer, the sizes of holes, and the refractive index of liquid strongly strengthen the gaps between two polarized directions. The surface plasmon resonance peak along y axis can be up to 675.8 d B/cm at 1.33 μm. The proposed PCF has important application in polarization devices, such as filters and beam splitters. 相似文献
