摘要

制备了不同倾斜角度的倾斜布拉格光纤光栅, 用于测量周围环境的折射率. 当环境折射率增加时, 高阶包层模谐振峰会逐渐消失, 即将逐渐消失的高阶包层模谐振峰的波长会随环境折射率的增大而线性增大. 测得的折射率灵敏度在500 nm/RIU以上. 通过选择适当的倾斜角度, 制得的光纤传感器可以满足不同范围的折射率测量.

Abstract

We demonstrate fabrication of tilted fiber Bragg gratings (TFBGs) with different tilt angles for the measurement of surrounding refractive index (SRI). High order
cladding modes has been found to disappear gradually, with their resonance wavelength linearly increasing as SRI increases. The measured index sensitivity is higher than 500 nm/RIU. By optimizing the tilt angle of the grating, the proposed optical fiber sensor can be used for SRI measurements in different index range.
