Abstract

The invention discloses a refractive index and temperature sensor of a photonic crystal fiber, a manufacturing method and a measuring system. The refractive index and temperature sensor comprises an optical signal input-output fiber made of a single mode fiber, a sensor probe made of a photonic crystal fiber, and an ellipsoid air cavity formed by sunk air holes of a cladding layer of the photonic crystal fiber; and a composite Fabry-Perot cavity is formed by the air cavity and the sensor probe. With the adoption of the refractive index and temperature sensor of the photonic crystal fiber and the measuring system, the fiber does not need to be corroded or photo-etched, so the manufacturing is convenient, a sensor system is free from the affect of stray lights; the refractive index and the temperature are measured synchronously, the signal noise is low, the system sensitivity is high, and the reliability is high.

Description

[0001] technical field [0002] The invention relates to an optical fiber sensor, a manufacturing method and a measuring system thereof, in particular to a photonic crystal optical fiber refractive index temperature sensor, a manufacturing method and a measuring system. Background technique [0003] Refractive index is a basic property of matter, which changes with changes in external temperature, concentration, density, pressure, etc. Therefore, the measurement of refractive index has important practical significance. Traditional measurement methods include Abbe refractometer, laser irradiation method and Young's interferometry. But these traditional refractometers are not suitable for long-distance and small-volume fields. The difference in refractive index between the fiber core and cladding determines the numerical aperture, which affects the loss of the fiber. The numerical aperture of the optical fiber is modulated by temperature, that is, the light-gathering abi...
