Background technique
Long-period fiber grating (LPFG) period is tens to several hundred microns, is the fibre core basic mode and cladding mode of symport
Between coupling, function is that the light wave for the specific wavelength that will be propagated in optical fiber is coupled in covering and loses, anti-without generating
It penetrates.Experiments have shown that the transmission characteristic of long-period fiber grating can change because of the variation of the factors such as extraneous stress, temperature, and compared with
The reaction of fiber bragg grating (FBG) is more sensitive, is a kind of ideal sensing element.Its wide range of applications,
Fibre Optical Sensor and optical-fibre communications field have a good application prospect.But be also just the transmissison characteristic due to LPFG, make its work
When for sensing element, reflective probe structure cannot function as, and demodulated equipment spectrometer is expensive, bulky, causes
There are many limitations when practical application.
" Acta Optica " has delivered " the plating metal long-period fiber grating strength of fluid based on double-humped resonance effect for 2011
Sensor ", author: Gu Zhengxian, Zhangjiang great waves, proposition based on double-humped resonance effect long-period fiber grating, be still transmission-type
Fiber-optic grating sensor is not easy to realize the sensing of sonde configuration;" photoelectric project " 07 phase in 2009 has delivered " metal coating
The single end face LPFG index sensor of SPR ", author: Zhao Minfu, Zhang Guiju, Ma Difeng;The reflective long period optical fiber proposed
Grating, disadvantage is that, 1) thin metal film of various different-thickness is plated on grating to excite described in the document
Surface plasma wave measures the refractive index of liquid with this metal-coated membrane fiber-optic grating sensor, and studies its reflection
The characteristic of resonance spectrum;In practical application, the factor for influencing the sensitivity characteristic of reflective long-period fiber grating sensor is more,
The document has only carried out research work from the angle of SPR effect, although providing reference for measurement refractive index, is intended to reach essence
True measurement performance also needs to consider a lot of other factors;2) document is measured using wideband light source and spectrometer, broadband
Light source and spectrometer are expensive, bulky, the higher cost in actually promoting the use of, inconvenient for use, and occupy more people
Power resource;3) sensor structure in the document is monolithic construction, since in use, end is easy to be touched by the external world
And damage, and monolithic construction can not flexibly replace sensing probe, it is not convenient enough to use;It is entire if tip damage simultaneously

Embodiment 8
The present embodiment is discussed to the principle of embodiment 1-7, single-ended reflection long-period fiber grating probe (Single
Coating Long-period-fiber grating, SCLPG) sensing principle:
The Mode Coupling of LPFG belongs to the coupling between fibre core basic mode LP01 and the single order cladding mode LP0m of symport.By
Coupled mode theory is it is found that the phase-matching condition of long-period fiber grating can be indicated by formula:
The respectively effective refractive index of fiber core and the m times cladding mode.The effective refractive index of fibre core basic modeBy fiber core refractive index n1With cladding index n2It determines, and the effective refractive index of cladding mode and n1, n2While related, also with
Ambient refractive index nsurIt is related, the variation of covering Effective index will be caused when ambient refractive index changes, and then cause resonance wave
Long λLDrift.Therefore, the resonance wavelength of LPFG is particularly sensitive to the variation of extraneous ambient refractive index, fixed to a period
LPFG has:
Meanwhile with ambient refractive index nsurVariation, LPFG is in resonance wavelengthLThe transmissivity T at place also accordingly becomes
Change:
T=sin2(kL)
Wherein:For the coefficient of coup between fibre core basic mode and cladding mode, L is grating length.
I is that basic mode and cladding mode intersect integral in core region.Wherein: Ecore, EcladRespectively fibre core basic mode and covering
The electric field magnitude of mould, DncoFor the modulation rate of fibre core, a is fiber core radius.
It can be seen that covering Effective index will be caused when LPFG is changed by extraneous refractive index's
Variation, thus makes resonance wavelengthLIt drifts about, meanwhile,Variation also change integral I value, so as to cause coefficient of coup k's
Variation, so that resonance wavelengthLCorresponding transmissivity changes, i.e. the entire transmission spectrum of LPFG changes.
Generally at 100 μm or more, it is based on meeting phase-matching condition in optical fiber the screen periods of long-period fiber grating
Mode in the same direction between resonance coupling, be by coupling between the guided mode of fl transmission and other forward direction guided modes or forward radiation mould
It closes, certain frequency band in light wave is lost optically coupling to going in covering, therefore without retroreflection.And works as and plated in grating end face
After the high metal film of reflectivity, the original transmitted light by LPFG will form single-ended reflection long period optical fiber in end face reflection
Raster probe.And experiments verify that equally having temperature, refractive index sensing characteristic.
Ambient refractive index be less than covering modal refractive index 1.458 or so when, resonance wavelength with ambient refractive index increase
It is deviated to shortwave direction, when close to cladding index, offset significantly becomes larger, and the sensibility of LPFG refractive index increases at this time
Add;When ambient refractive index increases to equal to cladding index, at this time it is believed that cladding radius is infinitely great, coupling peak all disappears
It loses;And when ambient refractive index continues to increase to above cladding index, resonance wavelength occurs in initial position again, and with
Refractive index continues growing, and resonance peak position is almost unchanged, but stiffness of coupling reduces at this time, and transmissivity increases, resonance peak depth
It shoals.By experiment it is found that when steel bar corrosion is more serious, rust water refractive index is 1.3536, still less than the refractive index of cladding mode
1.458, that is, being still within can monitoring range.
Schematically the present invention and embodiments thereof are described above, description is not limiting, institute in attached drawing
What is shown is also one of embodiments of the present invention, and actual structure is not limited to this.So if the common skill of this field
Art personnel are enlightened by it, without departing from the spirit of the invention, are not inventively designed and the technical solution
Similar frame mode and embodiment, are within the scope of protection of the invention.
