Abstract (EN):
In this work, interferometric sensors based on antiresonance reflecting waveguide (ARROW) fibers were developed and their performances were characterized for measurement of physical parameters, particularly strain and temperature. Two types of ARROW fibers were considered and signal demodulation was achieved using the white light interferometric technique. Application issues of sensing heads based on these fibers are also addressed. © 2009 SPIE.
