Description

By corroding the interferometer that expanded core fiber is realized
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of interferometer, sensory field of optic fibre is particularly suitable for use in.
Background technology
With the progress of optical fiber sensing technology, all kinds of different principles, the sensing device of different structure are continued to bring out, wherein one The more important Passive Optical Components based on optical fiber structure of class is used widely, here it is MZ interferometers, and its operation principle is Script optical signal is divided into two-way or multichannel by optical splitter, makes the optical signal do not gone the same way by obstructed path, so as to produce light path The optical signal do not gone the same way is closed beam by difference, the bundling device in interferometer end again, interference occurs.
Because the fiber lengths between the fringe-width and optical splitter and bundling device of MZ interferometers have direct relation, light Fine longer, the interference fringe of generation is closeer, and by by stress or temperature parameter act on this section of optical fiber can realize stress or It is the sensing of temperature.Traditional MZ interferometers based on optical fiber structure are usually two cones of pull-out separated by a distance on optical fiber, First is bored equivalent to optical splitter, and the optical signal in a fibre core point part is transmitted into covering, and second cone is equivalent to conjunction beam Device, the optical signal in covering can be reconsolidated to fibre core, finally interfere.The MZ interferometers of this structure make letter It is single, but be due to the optical fiber needs removing coating between two cones, and keep outer surface to clean, and the length of this section of optical fiber is usual All longer, sensitiveness is low during for sensor field so that be restricted in actual applications.Another is by two cones point Do not replaced with LPFG, LPFG therein serve by optical signal from fibre core coupled to covering and from Covering is coupled back into the effect of fibre core.This MZ interferometers need the write device of fiber grating, and cost is very high.Also some other The optical fiber MZ interferometer of structure needs to use special optical fiber, and its cost of manufacture is even more to greatly improve.
In summary, being currently based on the interferometer problem encountered of optical fiber structure is:Size is big, sensitiveness is poor, make Cost is high.
The content of the invention
The technical problems to be solved by the invention are:
Being currently based on the interferometer problem encountered of optical fiber structure is:Size is big, sensitiveness is poor, cost of manufacture is high.
The technical scheme is that:
By corroding the interferometer that expanded core fiber is realized, the interferometer is included in the Kuo Xin areas 2 made on optical fiber 1 and corrosion Area 3.
Preparation method:Optical fiber 1 is removed into coating, pushed away at the two ends of optical fiber 1 to centre while being heated to optical fiber 1, is made Kuo Xin areas 2, then radially corrode the middle part of Kuo Xin areas 2 with HF solution, form corrosion region 3.The method of heating includes:Electric spark is put Electricity, CO2Laser is focused on or flame heating.
The a diameter of D of optical fiber 11, the maximum gauge in Kuo Xin areas 2 is D2, length is 2L1+L2, the length of corrosion region 3 is L2, depth For H.
D1=50~500 μm.
D2=1.1D1~10D1
L1=0.5D1~10D1
L2=0.5L1~5L1
0.1D2≤H<0.5D2
The present invention is compared with prior art to be had the advantage that:
No matter the interferometer made in the method for making Kuo Xin areas on optical fiber and then corroding is in radial direction or axial chi It is very little all sufficiently small, so that the measurement to gaseous state or liquid refractive index only needs to seldom dosage.Compared to tradition at least Several centimetres, the at most sensing arrangement of several tens cm dimensionally has reduction by a relatively large margin.And corrode out corrosion region by In radial dimension very little, fibre cladding is very thin or completely without fibre cladding so that the transmission state of laser is treated to surrounding The variations in refractive index for surveying thing is very sensitive, increases susceptibility, and manufacturing process is simple, and cost is low.
