Problems solved by technology

[0004] In fiber optic sensors, the sensors for temperature, strain and pressure measurement are mainly fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) and FP cavity interferometers. FBG is widely used due to its temperature and other measured cross-sensitivity and spectral distortion under large strains. subject to greater restrictions
Due to the small cross-sensitivity between temperature and other measurands, the Fap sensor is very suitable for temperature, strain and pressure measurement, but the current structure of the optical fiber Fap sensor is shown in Figure 1, which uses a catheter 11 to connect two sections of optical fiber together , the mechanical stability is not good, and it is not resistant to high temperature. Its production mainly depends on manual production and packaging, and its yield and product repetition rate cannot be guaranteed.
[0005] JP2001280922 discloses a F-P sensor, which is only suitable for multi-mode optical fibers due to the use of corrosion technology, the sensor cavity must be multi-mode optical fibers, the production efficiency is low, and it is difficult to achieve large-scale manufacturing; Cutting, it is difficult to make a pressure sensor
