Embodiment 1

[0034] In this example, see figure 1 , a method of manufacturing an intrinsic type Fabry-Perot stress sensor based on an optical fiber fusion cone, comprising the steps of:

[0035] 1) Preparation process of optical fiber fusion cone:

[0036] Before drawing the optical fiber, cut the optical fiber with a set length, peel off the coating layer with a length of no more than 2cm in the middle of the optical fiber, and wipe it clean with absolute ethanol as a pre-drawn optical fiber; then place the pre-drawn optical fiber on the optical fiber fixture In the process, the optical fiber stripped of the coating layer is placed in the middle of the optical fiber clamp, and a section of ordinary single-mode optical fiber parallel to the pre-drawn optical fiber is placed in the clamps on both sides to fix the pre-drawn optical fiber; then the drawing speed and drawing speed are controlled by the program The length and hydrogen flow parameters are obtained by heating, melting and drawin...

With the increase of the stress at both ends of the sensing device, the overall reflectance spectrum shifts to the long wavelength direction. The manufacturing method of the intrinsic type Fabry-Perot stress sensor based on the optical fiber fusion cone, the single-mode optical fiber intrinsic type Fabry-Perot stress sensor with a cavity length of 600 μm is prepared, and the valley value near 1551nm is selected for monitoring , the change curve of the wavelength with the stress at bot...

[0050] This embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, and the special features are:

[0051] In this example, see Figure 5 with Image 6 , based on the manufacturing method of the intrinsic type Fabry-Perot stress sensor based on the optical fiber fusion cone, the intrinsic type Fabry-Perot device with the waist diameter of the cone is 61 μm and the cavity length is 200 μm and 400 μm respectively , to monitor the variation of trough wavelength with stress near 1565nm and 1574nm. When the diameter of the fiber is reduced, under the same external stress, the reflection spectrum of the fiber fusion cone intrinsic type Fabry-Perot stress sensor has a larger shift than that of the traditional single-mode fiber intrinsic type Fabry-Perot stress sensor. want more. Through calculation, we can get that when the interference wavelength of the sensor is 200μm and 400μm, its stress sensitivity is 6.669nm / N and 5.984nm / N respectively.

Abstract

The invention provides an intrinsic Fabry-Perot tension sensor based on an optical fiber pyrometric cone and a manufacturing method thereof. The device uses a femtosecond pulse laser to write two refractive index change regions inside the cone waist of the optical fiber pyrometric cone to form a mirror surface, and acquires different tension sensing sensitivities by changing the diameter of the cone waist of the optical fiber pyrometric cone. When the sensor is subjected to external tension, the cavity length, core diameter and core refractive index of the intrinsic Fabry-Perot sensor based onthe optical fiber pyrometric cone are changed slightly, and the optical path difference of the optical fiber intrinsic Fabry-Perot sensor is changed. The reflection spectrum drifts, and changes in external tension are observed. The device combines the thin straight cone waist feature of the optical fiber pyrometric cone with the high-resolution sensing feature of the optical fiber intrinsic Fabry-Perot. The sensing sensitivity, resolution, response speed and reliability of the optical fiber sensor are improved. The sensor has a broad application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber sensor, in particular to an optical fiber stress sensor, which is applied in the technical field of optical fiber devices. Background technique [0002] In recent years, optical fiber stress sensors have been widely used in the safety and health detection of major buildings such as dams, tunnels, and long-span bridges. At the same time, it is very difficult to reliably detect the safety of such major buildings. As an important parameter for the safety measurement of large buildings, its high-sensitivity measurement has always been a difficulty in the field of optical fiber device production. The main factors are: the optical fiber stress sensor has complex manufacturing process, large size, high cost, and low optical fiber sensitivity. question. Therefore, the optical fiber stress sensor based on Mach-Zehnder interferometer and photonic crystal fiber is relatively simple in manufacturing process, small in size...
