But some difficult technical problems of traditional metal enameled wire channel have become the major bottleneck for XCTD development. Aiming at this problem, this paper puts forward with using single-mode fiber as the transmission channel of XCTD. Firstly, this paper makes a brief analysis on the problems of using enameled wire as transmission channel faces. Secondly, it analyzes the advantages of the single mode fiber technology. Finally, it makes theoretical research and experimental verification of the influence of seawater temperature change on the optical fiber transmission channel. The experimentat results show that the error rate at the transmission rate of 10 MB/S is 0, and the loss can be negligible when the single-mode fiber channel is used in the sea water and the seawater temperature changes from 0 to 20℃. This method will greatly increase the rate of signal transmission and the transmission stability. And this paper shows that using the single-mode fiber as the transmission channel of XCTD has certain feasibility.展开更多

In order to get a proper spectrum, we discuss the effects of different structure parameters of MZI. Using the resonant wavelength of the FBG (DipFBG) and the interference dip of the MZI (Dipl), the RI and tempera- ture of the surrounding medium can be determined. The sensor has good operation linearity. The experimental results show that the distinctive spectral sensitivities are 0.071 75 nm/℃and -91.766 67 nm/RIU (refraction index unit) for Dip1 and 0.009 09 nm/℃ for DipFBG.展开更多

The wavelength sensitivity for temperature variation was as high as △λ/△T= 78 pm/℃ up to 500℃, which was 6 times more sensitive than the fiber Bragg grating temperature sensitivity of △λ/△TT= 13pm/℃ at 1550nm. The sensor device was investigated conceming the sensitivity characteristics and response time.展开更多

The modal interferometer is fabricated by just splicing a section of photonic crystal fiber(PCF) with a single-mode fiber(SMF). The air holes of the PCF are fully collapsed by the discharge arc during the splicing procedure to enhance the reflection coefficient of the splicing point. The transmission spectra with different temperatures are measured, and the experimental results show that the linear response of 11.12 pm/°C in the range of 30–80 °C is obtained. This sensor has potential applications in temperature measurement field.展开更多

The sensing mechanism of tension and temperature is analyzed. The relationships between the interference spectrum, temperature and tension are analyzed, respectively. The experimental temperature range is 36—70 °C. The experimental results show that the interference spectrum is red shifted, and its sensitivity is 53.89 pm/°C. In tension experiment, the tension range is 0—1 400 με. The experimental results show that there is no wavelength shift in the interference spectrum. The sensor is immune to tension cross-sensitivity compared with other sensors. It can be used for temperature testing in aerospace, chemistry and pharmacy.展开更多
