In each case L is the physical length of the optical cavity. by magnetron sputtering have been used. 3 mm [11]. The cavity for FFPI sensor can also be formed from fiber Bragg grating (FBG) mirrors [12,13] (Fig. 3c). These mirrors, which consist of alternating low-and high-refractive index regions with spatial period L, are written by interfering two ultraviolet laser beams in a single-mode fiber that may be doped with hydrogen to enhance writing sensitivity. The FBG mirrors are spatially distributed over lengths of the order of mm, several orders of magnitude greater than the extent of the internal dielectric mirrors (Fig.
Response to pressure waves and for minimal acoustic mismatches between the medium in which the pressure waves propagate and the optical fiber. These coated fibers are often used in combination with compliant mandrills or strips of material as in Fig. 39 that act to amplify the environmentally induced optical path length difference. In many cases the mechanical details of the transducer design are critical to good performance such as the seismic=vibration sensor of Fig. 40. Generally, the Mach–Zehnder and Michelson interferometers can be configured with sensitivities that are better than 10À6 radians per square root Hertz.
