Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and the specific embodiments, be described in further detail technical scheme of the present invention.
Below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the present invention is described further:
As shown in Figure 1, sensor of the present invention is formed primarily of input optical fibre 1, output optical fibre 2, kapillary 4 and curved fiber grating (FBG) structure 5, wherein input optical fibre 1, output optical fibre 2 are welded on the two ends of curved fiber optical grating construction 5 respectively, input optical fibre 1, output optical fibre 2 pass from kapillary 4, until curved fiber optical grating construction 5 is near kapillary 4, drop-shaped curved fiber optical grating construction 5 is fixed with by fixing glue 3 and kapillary 4 near kapillary 4 side, and curved fiber optical grating construction 5 comprises the Fiber Bragg Grating FBG that a section is removed coat.
Used in this example is common commercial FBG, and its input optical fibre 1, output optical fibre 2 are standard single-mode fiber (CorningSMF-28); Fixing glue 3 adopts ultra-violet curing glue; Kapillary 4 is the glass tube of 3mm for internal diameter is 0.5mm length; The length being removed the fiber grating (comprising the grid region of FBG) of coat in curved fiber optical grating construction 5 is 25mm, and the radius-of-curvature of drops structure is 4.5mm.FBG is the abbreviation of FiberBraggGrating, i.e. Fiber Bragg Grating FBG.
The concrete manufacturing process of this sensor is: first, and the coat in curved fiber grating FBG grid region is divested and cleaned with alcohol; The input optical fibre 1, the output optical fibre 2 that are welded on FBG two ends are passed from kapillary the same side, input optical fibre 1 with connect wideband light source, output optical fibre 2 connects spectrometer Real-Time Monitoring transmission spectrum, slip kapillary is held to FBG, drops structure is formed in FBG region, observing transmission spectrum simultaneously, significantly interfering trough to producing; Finally fix near FBG side point glue at kapillary.(3) response curve of FBG transmission trough and warp architecture interference trough refractive index and temperature variation is demarcated by experiment respectively.The carrying out that namely calibrated sensor can be used to refractive index and temperature is to external world measured simultaneously.
Sensor of the present invention can be regarded as a FBG and the combination in drops warp architecture (as shown in Figure 1).For a broadband input optical signal, output spectrum is the superposition of FBG and warp architecture transmission spectrum.The two separately can be discussed for the ease of analyzing:
(1), for FBG, because the fibre core pattern in bragg wavelength place fl transmission is almost all coupled in the fibre core pattern of reverse transfers, therefore its transmission spectrum shows as and to form a sharp-pointed trough at bragg wavelength place;
(2), for a drop-shaped warp architecture, because the bending of optical fiber causes a part of fibre core pattern to enter covering, reflect again at covering and extraneous interphase, thus formation Whispering-gallery-mode, this pattern partial coupling when sweep transmits returns fibre core, interfere between output optical fibre place core mode and Whispering-gallery-mode, output spectra is formed the trough that one or more are wider;
In sum, the transmission spectrum of sensor of the present invention there will be two class troughs: a class is caused by FBG, a class is caused by drops warp architecture.The centre wavelength of this two classes trough all can along with the change of extraneous refractive index or temperature and linear change, but its slope is different, therefore, after demarcating, by monitoring the change of two class trough centre wavelengths simultaneously, refractive index to external world and temperature are measured simultaneously.
As shown in Figure 2, can see, the carefully sharp trough (trough 1) at 1539.2nm place is that FBG causes, and two other wider trough is then because warp architecture causes.Choose the trough 1 shown in figure and trough 2 as monitoring target, measure their center wavelength with temperature and the change of refractive index respectively, sensor is demarcated.
As shown in Figure 3, when extraneous refractive index remains 1.0, the centre wavelength of trough 1 and trough 2 is all along with the increase of temperature is moved to long wave direction, but the amplitude of movement is different.
As shown in Figure 4, visible trough 1 and the center wavelength with temperature linear change both trough 2, slope of a curve represents the sensitivity of respective center wavelength versus temperature change.Can find out, the sensitivity of the transmission paddy centre wavelength that this sample sensor FBG and drops warp architecture produce temperature variation is to external world respectively 9.8pm/ DEG C and 31.7pm/ DEG C; Y is dependent variable, represents the variable quantity of the centre wavelength of trough.In figure, x is independent variable, represents the size of ambient temperature; R represents the fitting coefficient of linear fit.
As shown in Figure 5 be that ambient temperature keeps 20 DEG C, the transmission spectrum of sensor is with the situation of change of extraneous refractive index.Can find out, the centre wavelength of trough 1 and trough 2 is all along with the increase of extraneous refractive index is moved to long wave direction.
Be illustrated in figure 6 the change curve of centre wavelength with extraneous refractive index of trough 1 and trough 2, all in good linear relationship.Fitting result show FBG and warp architecture for the sensitivity of trough centre wavelength variations in refractive index be to external world respectively 0.5050nm/RIU and 165.9276nm/RIU (RIU is unit refractive index).In figure, y is dependent variable, represents the variable quantity of the centre wavelength of trough; X is independent variable, represents the size of extraneous refractive index; R represents linearly dependent coefficient.
After demarcating this sensor, the response of sensor two troughs to temperature and variations in refractive index can be expressed as matrix form:
Wherein Δ T and Δ n represents the variable quantity of ambient temperature and refractive index, Δ λ 1with Δ λ 2represent the variable quantity of the centre wavelength of trough 1 and trough 2 respectively.Numeral in formula is exactly the sensitivity parameter determined with above-mentioned calibration process.According to above formula, as long as record the variable quantity of two trough centre wavelengths, the variable quantity of corresponding temperature and refractive index can be calculated, thus achieve measurement while temperature and refractive index.
In summary it can be seen, the sensor in the present invention has refractive index and thermometric ability simultaneously, and this sensor has, and cost of manufacture is low, simple and compact for structure, sensitivity advantages of higher.
