摘要
To optimize the optical fiber temperature sensor employing the deep-grooved process, a novel scheme was proposed. Fabricated by the promising CO2 laser irradiation system based on the two-dimensional scanning motorized stage with high precision, the novel deep-grooved optical fiber temperature sensor was obtained with its temperature sensitivity of the transmission attenuation -0.107dB/℃, which was 18.086 times higher than the optical fiber sensor with the normal depth of grooves while other parameters remained unchanged. The principal research and experimental testing showed that the designed temperature sensor measurement unit had the ability of high sensitivity in transmission attenuation and insensitivity to the wavelength, which offers possible applications in engineering.
