Abstract:
Fibre coupler for creation of optical fibre-containing interferometers (sensors), with at least two parallel optical fibres placed in an enclosure characterized in that each of the optical fibres consists of at least three alternately placed light-conductive sections with different coatings, at least one (1) of which has a melting point above 200°C, and the two corresponding sections (2) with coating other than with a melting point above 200°C are coupled using any known method. Interferometer containing above described fibre couplers, where the fibre couplers are interconnected by at least two optical fibre sections (8, 9) with a high temperature-resistant coating.
Abstract:
A method of connecting optical fibers coated with conductive layer, preferably metalized, with metal elements, comprising the following stages: 1. preparing the electrolyte, 2. clearing the optical fiber surface and clearing the electrodes, 3. placing the optical fiber and the metal sensor element in the electrolyzer, 4. enabling flow of electricity, 5. cleaning the elements - the optical fiber element bonded to the metal element.
