摘要
A miniature Fabry-Perot interferometer is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for high temperature measurement. The device is fabricated by alignment splicing a short section of double-core photonic crystal fiber (DC-PCF) to the lead-in single mode fiber. Due to the optical path difference of reflective light from splicing region and end-face of DC-PCF, a well-defined interference spectrum is obtained based on similar to 72.3 mu m-long cavity. Experimental results indicate that the proposed sensor has a considerable temperature sensitivity of 13.9 pm/degrees C in the measurement range of 30 degrees C-900 degrees C. The proposed sensor has advantages of small size and high stability, and so on, making it a good candidate in harsh high temperature environment with limited-space.
