Refractive-index-modified-dot Fabry-Perot fiber probe fabricated by femtosecond laser for high-temperature sensing
Abstract:
An optical fiber Fabry-Perot probe sensor for high-temperature measurement is proposed and demonstrated, which is fabricated by inducing a refractive-index-modified-dot (RIMD) in the fiber core near the end of a standard single mode fiber (SMF) using a femtosecond laser. The RIMD and the SMF end faces form a Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) with a high-quality interference fringe visibility (>20dB). As a high-temperature sensor, such an FPI exhibits a sensitivity of 13.9pm/°C and 18.6pm/°C in the range of 100-500°Cand 500-1000°C,respectively. The fabrication process of this device is quite straightforward, simple, time saving, and the sensor features small size, ease of fabrication, low cost, assembly-free, good mechanical strength, and high linear sensitivity.

The Dot Product
Dot Product
In engineering, the dot product of any two vectors is the product of the magnitudes of the vectors and the cosine of the angle between them. It is denoted by a dot symbol between the two vectors.
Consider a vehicle pulling an object along the ground using a rope. If the rope makes an angle with the horizontal axis, the work done can be calculated using the dot product of the force applied and the object's displacement.
