Temperature monitorable refractometer of microfiber Bragg grating using a duet of harmonic resonances
Abstract:
To overcome the temperature cross-sensitivity of the microfiber Bragg grating (m-FBG) refractometer, we propose a novel refractive-index-temperature dual-sensing paradigm involving the third harmonic Bragg resonance that presents distinctive sensing characteristics. Strong resonances are obtained in both 1060 nm and 1550 nm wavebands under the modulation of the UV Talbot pattern. Moreover, higher-order transverse mode coupled resonance is also observed at the third harmonic waveband, supplementing an independent signal for enabling a sensing trio potentially. It is believed that the proposed dual-sensing paradigm would contribute to the m-FBT-based chemoprobes/bioprobes.

Harmonic Mean
Take the example of the speed of a car, which is the measure of the rate of distance traveled. If the vehicle traverses the same distance back-and-forth, its average speed equals the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. However, if the car moves with varying speeds, then the arithmetic mean is more skewed...
