Abstract: An optical fiber transducer usable in environments of extreme operating temperature features a stationary support, a movable body displaceable back and forth relative thereto, and an optical fiber connected between the support and the movable body. The fiber has a Fiber Bragg Grating in an intermediate region thereof between the support and movable body. To accommodate varying coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) among these components, one or more tubes close circumferentially around the fiber. Each tube has a CTE that is greater than that of the fiber, and less than that of the constituent material of the support and movable body. The fiber is bonded to an interior of the tube(s), while an exterior of the tube(s) is bonded to the support and movable body.
