Fabrication of Fluorescent Fiber Optic Temperature Sensors

The metal oxide semiconductors (ZnO, SnO2, Al2O3 and TiO2) were synthesized by co-precipitation method. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (S. The XRD results stipulated that the ZnO nanoparticle is crystallized in hexagonal wurtzite structure, SnO2 nanoparticles in rutile tetragonal structure, Al2O3 nanoparticle in rombohedral structure and TiO2 nanoparticle in rutile anatase structure.

Fiber optic channel interrupted after temperature drop

Fiber optic channel interrupted after temperature drop

When the temperature drops, the water freezes, and ice forms around the fiber – with the large resulting forces causing the fiber to deform and bend. However, one critical factor that often determines fiber performance and longevity— temperature tolerance —is frequently overlooked. Thus, the conjugation of high power propagation and tight bending, resulting from the actual FTTH infrastructures, is responsible for fibre lifetime reduction, mainly caused by the local increase of the coating temperature. Fiber optic technology has revolutionized telecommunications, providing high-speed data transmission over long distances with minimal loss.

Fiber Optic Temperature Sensor Fabrication Method

We demonstrate the fabrication of fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) temperature sensors by bonding a small silicon diaphragm to the tip of an optical fiber using low melting point glass powders heated by a 980 nm laser on an aerogel substrate. Besides, they exhibit high measurement speeds and high sensitivity due to the large thermal diffusivity and the large thermo-optic coefficient of silicon and the small size of the sensing element. Fiber Bragg gratings are very efficient at temperature sensing and are easy to implement; however, they always need additional techniques to discriminate the Bragg shifts by temperature and by strain/compression and they also require expensive phase-masks.
