“…Optical fiber-based sensors have attracted much attention due to their unique advantages [12,13,14,15,16], such as compact size, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and fast response time, which are based on a variety of principles and structures, such as fiber gratings, fiber lasers, fiberoptic interferometers, etc. Therefore, they have widely been used to monitor the temperature [12], the curvature [16], the gas [15], etc. [17].…”

In this paper, a temperature self-compensated refractive index sensor based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and the ellipsoid structure is demonstrated. The ellipsoid can excite the cladding modes and recouple them into the fiber core. Two well-defined wavelength bands are observed in the reflection spectrum of the proposed sensor, i.e., the Bragg resonant peak and the cladding resonant peaks. By measuring the wavelength shift of the cladding resonant peak, the surrounding refractive index (SRI) can be determined, and the wavelength shift of the Bragg resonant peak can be used as a reliable reference to self-compensate the temperature variation (temperature sensitivity of 10.76 pm/°C). When the SRI changes from 1.3352 to 1.3722, the cladding resonant peak redshifts linearly with an average sensitivity of 352.6 pm/RIU (refractive index unit). When the SRI changes from 1.3722 to 1.4426, an exponential redshift is observed with a maximum sensitivity of 4182.2 pm/RIU. Especially, the sensing performance is not very reliant on the distance between the FBG and the ellipsoid, greatly improving the ease of the fabrication.

Cyclic pulse and chaos are produced in an erbium doped fiber laser via modulating the pump in numerical simulation. Cyclic pulsing shows under the case of different conditions. Chaos and dual-cycle are studied. And a route is found from cyclic pulse to chaos with the modulation variable. Effects of the modulation level and frequency, pump, Er-doping concentration and photon lifetime are analyzed on cyclic pulse, respectively. We find three regions of periodic pulsing, unstable periodic pulsing and chaotic pulsing.

“…Particularly, in their application as sensors recently have been used in various areas of interest, such as chemical, acoustic waves, pressure and temperature measurements [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10].Moreover design of sensor systems using Bragg grating optical fiber (FBG) as temperature or strain sensors have applications in different areas. FBGs has been widely accepted because of their optical fiber compatibility, construction features that make them lightweight, small and their low sensitivity to electromagnetic interference feature [11,12].…”

In this paper a linear cavity Erbium doped fiber (EDF) laser based in a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and a fiber optical loop mirror with a high birefringence fiber in the loop (Hi-Bi FOLM) is used as a strain sensor. The Fabry-Perot cavity is formed by the FBG and the Hi-Bi FOLM, used as a measurement system of strain variations produced on the FBG, used as a strain sensor device. Usually, fiber laser sensor experimental setups determine the measured variable magnitude by using of an optical spectrum analyzer (OSA). Hi-Bi FOLM transmission spectrum wavelength displacement by fiber loop temperature variations measurement can be an attractive application exploiting the characteristics of FOLM transmission spectrum behavior due to Hi-Bi fiber loop temperature variations to determine the FBG strain applied through the maximal optical power monitoring by simple use of a photodetector and a temperature meter.
