Dynamic mechanical analysis on fused polymer optical fibers: towards sensor applications

Abstract: This Letter presents, for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, the dynamic mechanical analysis of a polymer optical fiber (POF) that was previously damaged by the catastrophic fuse effect. The variation of the fiber Young's modulus was evaluated with respect to the increase of temperature, humidity, and frequency of strain cycles. The obtained data for the fused POF are compared with the ones for the same POF without the fuse effect. The results show the feasibility of the fused POF for sensor applica… Show more

“…Note that this value is two orders of magnitude lower than that reported for PMMA-based POF at this angular velocity (∼1.2%) [5]. The reason for this difference may be related to the higher R 2 of the stress-strain curve of the fused POF [18]. Another reason may be the fact that the fused POF shows lower Young's modulus dependence with the frequency variations than the non-fused POF [18].…”

Another reason may be the fact that the fused POF shows lower Young's modulus dependence with the frequency variations than the non-fused POF [18]. Next, the influence of flexion/extension cycle frequency on the angle sensitivity of the POF samples were analyzed by changing the angular velocities (0.48 rad/s, 0.55 rad/s, 1.05 rad/s, 4.55 rad/s, and 5.61 rad/s made in the range between 0 deg and 90 deg, whereas 2.55 rad/s and 3.35 rad/s performed in the range of 0 deg to 50 deg due to experimental limitations).…”
