Principles of Fiber Bragg Grating Fabrication

Fiber Bragg gratings are created by "inscribing" or "writing" systematic (periodic or aperiodic) variation of refractive index into the core of a special type of optical fiber using an intense (UV) source such as a UV. Two main processes are used: interference and masking. The method that is preferable depends on the type of grating to be manufactured.

How fiber optic sensors identify numbers

A fiber optic sensor measures a physical quantity by modulating the intensity, spectrum, phase, or polarization of light traveling through the optical fiber system. It's a device that converts light rays into electronic signals. A fiber-optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). This signal can then be measured by an instrument or interpreted by a user.
