The system is able to obtain measurements on micrometer scales through heterodyne detection of intensity in a Mach Zehnder interferometry in fiber optic. For the displacement characterization, the fiber Bragg grating was attached from one end meanwhile at the other end a tension was induced by a high precision rotation mount. Experimental results are presented for which varying the angular displacement we obtain a linear response in the amplitude of the intensity, determining a sensitivity of 0.77 pW/µm with a displacement size of 48.80 µm in a dynamic range from 0 µm to 488 µm.
