Simultaneous 2D Strain Sensing Using Polymer Planar Bragg Gratings
We demonstrate the application of polymer planar Bragg gratings for multi-axial strain sensing and particularly highlight simultaneous 2D strain measurement. A polymer planar Bragg grating (PPBG) fabricated with a single writing step in bulk polymethylmethacrylate is used for measuring both tensile and compressive strain at various angles. It is shown that the sensitivity of the PPBG strongly d...
متن کاملApodised Bragg gratings in planar waveguides for add-drop filters
We report on the fabrication by electron-beam lithography of Bragg gratings, which serve as wavelength-selective elements of a Mach–Zehnder-type add-drop filter. To meet telecommunication network requirements, the gratings must have about 20 000 lines, corresponding to a length on the order of 10 mm. Furthermore, the coupling strength of the gratings has to be varied according to a bell-shaped ...
متن کاملEtched Polymer Fibre Bragg Gratings and Their Biomedical Sensing Applications
Bragg gratings in etched polymer fibres and their unique properties and characteristics are discussed in this paper. Due to the change in material and mechanical properties of the polymer fibre through etching, Bragg gratings inscribed in such fibres show high reflectivity and enhanced intrinsic sensitivity towards strain, temperature, and pressure. The short-term and long-term stability of the...
متن کاملModified coupled-mode model for thermally chirped polymer Bragg gratings.
A modified coupled-mode (CM) model is proposed for the optical behavior of thermally chirped Bragg gratings. The model accounts for the axial gradient in the modulation wavenumber, which has been ignored in the classical CM model. The model is used to characterize the optical behavior of a polymethyl methacrylate-based polymer Bragg grating subjected to nonisothermal conditions. The validity of...
متن کاملElectrically tunable Bragg gratings in single-mode polymer optical fiber.
We present what is to our knowledge the first demonstration of a tunable fiber Bragg grating device in polymer optical fiber that utilizes a thin-film resistive heater deposited on the surface of the fiber. The polymer fiber was coated via photochemical deposition of a Pd/Cu metallic layer with a procedure induced by vacuum-ultraviolet radiation at room temperature. The resulting device, when w...
