摘要: A multi-mode fibre optic sensor for optically sensing a physical perturbation includes a multi-mode optical fibre segment (14) which accepts coherent monochromatic radiation from a suitable source (12). As the radiation is propagated in the fibre (14), the various modes form a complex interference pattern which changes in response to a physical perturbation of the fibre. A detector (16) provides an output signal to a signal processor (18) which analyzes the signal as a function of the change in intensity to provide an information signal functionally related to the perturbation.

摘要: A transducer system which uses diffracted light energy in a transducer application analyzes light diffracted from a diffraction grating (20) to provide an indication of displacement or other measurable environmental changes, such a temperature changes. In one form, a diffraction grating (20) is fabricated from first and second gratings and has a step-wise change in the grating period at an integrating boundary (26). The grating (20) is illuminated with broadband light which is diffracted as a function of the irradiated position on the grating, with the wavelength of the diffracted light and the change in wavelength being a function of the diffraction grating position. In another form, a diffraction grating is provided with a variable grating period which can vary linearly, exponentially, or in accordance with some other function, and the wavelength of the diffracted light is a function of the relative displacement of the grating.
