摘要
A twin-core fiber Michelson interferometer is evaluated as a high-temperature sensor. Although linear and reproducible operation up to 300 degrees C is obtained, at higher temperatures (700 degrees C) the refractive index shifts plastically and hysteresis is observed, rendering an untreated sensor head unusable. The shift is shown to be greatly reduced by an annealing process of the fiber for 10 h at 900 degrees C, with which the linear response is preserved. (c) 2012 Optical Society of America
