The experimental results indicated that the sensing performance with the Pd-Y film was better than that with the Pd film. A fringe contrast with a decrease of 0.5 dB was detected with a hydrogen concentration change from 0% to 5.5%. The temperature response of the sensor was also measured.展开更多

The MAFPI structure is formed by a weak fiber Bragg grating （FBG）, a section of the microfiber, and a cleaved fiber end surface. The narrowband beam reflected from the low-reflectivity FBG and the broadband beam from the Fresnel reflection interfere lead to its unique sensing performance. The force sensing is performed by detecting the bending-loss induced fringe contrast changes, while the Bragg wavelength shift is employed for temperature measurement. Sensitivities of 9.8pm/℃ and 0.025dB/μN were obtained experimentally for temperature and force measurements, respectively.展开更多
