Abstract
Abstract A temperature sensor based upon a single mode - multimode-single mode – multimode - single mode (SMSMS) fiber structure is experimentally demonstrated. The SMSMS structure is covered by ethanol-glycerol solution, and changing the ratio of ethanol to glycerol changes the temperature sensitivity. A theoretical calculation was developed to characterize the influence of the ethanol-glycerol content upon the sensor performance,. Multimode interference (MMI) occurs between single mode fibers (SMF) and multimode fibers (MMF), and temperature measurements were achieved by monitoring the movement of the interference profile in the transmission spectrum. The results show that covering the SMSMS structure with an ethanol-glycerol solution improves the temperature sensitivity of the sensor. The temperature sensitivity was is 0.700 nm/°C from 30 °C to 80 °C.
期刊介绍:
Instrumentation Science & Technology is an internationally acclaimed forum for fast publication of critical, peer reviewed manuscripts dealing with innovative instrument design and applications in chemistry, physics biotechnology and environmental science. Particular attention is given to state-of-the-art developments and their rapid communication to the scientific community.
Emphasis is on modern instrumental concepts, though not exclusively, including detectors, sensors, data acquisition and processing, instrument control, chromatography, electrochemistry, spectroscopy of all types, electrophoresis, radiometry, relaxation methods, thermal analysis, physical property measurements, surface physics, membrane technology, microcomputer design, chip-based processes, and more.
Readership includes everyone who uses instrumental techniques to conduct their research and development. They are chemists (organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, nuclear, quality control) biochemists, biotechnologists, engineers, and physicists in all of the instrumental disciplines mentioned above, in both the laboratory and chemical production environments. The journal is an important resource of instrument design and applications data.
