Implementing a movable membrane with an FBG and a reference FBG for temperature compensation.

Main Results:

The FBG pressure sensor demonstrated a sensitivity of 9.086 pm/mbar within the 0-9 mbar range.
Achieved a high correlation coefficient of 0.9982.
Exhibited an average measurement error of 0.049 mbar and good reproducibility (0.0269 ± 0.0135 mbar).

Conclusions:

The 3D-printed FBG pressure sensor is a viable alternative for accurate gas pressure measurement.
The sensor's design provides immunity to EM interference, electrical passivity, and environmental resistance.
This technology holds promise for applications requiring precise and robust pressure sensing.
