Abstract
This article proposes and demonstrates a mirror polarization maintaining long-period fiber grating (MPMF-LPFG) vector magnetic field probe, which not only achieves vector magnetic field measurement, but also operates in reflection mode, providing a more suitable solution for the design of magnetic field sensing probes. The sensor is realized by embedding a bias-preserving fiber into a single-mode fiber with a reflective structure wrapped with a magnetic fluid (MF) for magnetic field measurement. The experimental results show that within the range of 1–10 mT, the maximum magnetic field intensity sensitivity and orientation sensitivity of the sensor are −0.6927 nm/mT and 0.149 nm/°, respectively, and the length of the grating region is only 3.25 mm. In addition, the surfaces of the overall structure remain circularly symmetrical and structural strength is ensured. The sensor proposed in this paper is compact and simple to fabricate and is expected to be used in the field of magnetic field detection.
