Research on NCF-PCF-NCF Structure Interference Characteristic for Temperature and Relative Humidity Measurement

Abstract: A novel structure of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) for temperature and relative humidity measurement is proposed. The novel structure is composed of two sections of no core fiber (NCF) with a piece of PCF. The sensitivity of the proposed sensor is enhanced by adopting NCF coupling method. The results show that the sensitivities of temperature are 0.059 nm/℃, 0.074 nm/℃ and 0.130 nm/℃ in the range of 25 ℃ to 70 ℃, and the sensitivities of relative humidity are 0.020 nm/%RH, 0.02… Show more

“…Rsoft is an optical waveguide simulation software with a variety of algorithm modules. Compared with other optical simulation software, its light intensity is directly monitored, the mode field distribution is more intuitive, and it is easier to debug the results [31,32]. The structure was simulated by using the BeamPRoP module of Rsoft in order to observe the propagation path of light in the SMF-PCF-SMF (SPS) structure.…”

“…With increasing attention to meteorology, agriculture, industry, and indoor environments, the importance of humidity sensors has become more prominent. Fiber optic humidity sensors have been proposed, such as humidity sensors based on FBG [92,93], longperiod fiber gratings (LPFG) [94,95], MZI [96,97], and Michelson interferometers [98,99]. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is a commonly used synthetic polymer, also known as acrylic or organic glass, which can absorb or release moisture, causing volume changes.…”
