Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fiber sensors, in particular to an extrinsic Fabry-Perot sensor. Background technique

[0002] The Fabry-Perot sensor is an optical Fabry-Perot interferometer (Fabry-Perot Interferometer, FPI) based on the principle of multi-beam interference. Because the working principle of FPI is through two reflective The change of the distance between the surfaces is used to measure the change of the measured point, so in the field of sensing, it can be made very small. Unlike other types of fiber optic sensing interferometers, such as Mach-Zehnder, Michelson, Sagnac and other two-beam interferometers, FPI does not require fiber optic coupler. This makes FPI ideal for small sensing structures. The rapid development of FPI also lies in the fact that it can greatly reduce the cost of multi-point monitoring through technologies such as space division, time division, frequency division, and related multiplexing.

Embodiment Construction

[0032] The present invention will now be described in further detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. These drawings are all simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, so they only show the configurations related to the present invention.

[0033] Such as figure 2 As shown, an extrinsic Fabry-Perot sensor includes two sections of optical fiber 1, two sections of metal ferrule 2 and metal sleeve 3, and the inner side of each section of metal ferrule 2 is fixed with an optical fiber 1. The outer sides of the two metal ferrules 2 are encapsulated with metal sleeves 3 , and the optical fiber 1 and the metal ferrules 2 are preferably bonded by epoxy resin 4 . Opposite end face groups 5 are formed at the ends of the two sections of optical fiber 1 and / or metal ferrule 2 , and the end face group 5 forms a hollow cavity 6 with the metal sleeve 3 , and reflective film...
