Specific embodiment
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2: 1 is wide spectrum light source in Fig. 1, and 2 be interference structure, mounted in the scale of thermometer of a temperature-controllable Determine in case, 3 be spectrum recorder, and 4 be transmission fiber, and 5 use thermometer for calibration or comparison.
In Fig. 2, the left side is single mode optical fiber and seven core fibre end face sectional views, and 7 fibre cores of seven core fibre are by one Central core and 6 away from 35 μm of the central core peripheral fibre core groups compositions in regular hexagon.What is selected in the present embodiment is Seven core fibre of SM-7C1500 (6.1/125) model of fibercore company, seven core fibre length are 9mm.
As shown in figure 3, all -fiber Mach Zehnder interference structure includes the first single mode optical fiber 6 and the second single mode optical fiber 10, The end of first single mode optical fiber 6 and the second single mode optical fiber 10 is melted and molded as coccoid (7 and 9), bead 7 and bead 9 Between connected using one section of seven core fibre 8.
All -fiber Mach Zehnder interference structure fabrication process: first single mode optical fiber is melted at one end using optical fiber splicer It is connected into spherical structure, is made another spare;Again by seven core fibres and the single mode optical fiber welding for having spherical structure, a fixed length is measured It spends (choosing 9mm in the present embodiment) and seven core fibres is truncated using optical fiber cutter, then be fused into another single mode optical fiber ball end Symmetrical structure forms the fibre-optic waveguide of " SMF-ball-SCF-ball-SMF ".
The working principle of the sensor are as follows: wide spectrum optical enters single mode optical fiber, is transmitted in the form of optical fiber basic mode, by first When optical fiber ball 7, launching efficiency is improved, and at mutation, a part of core mode, which is excited in covering, forms cladding mode, along packet Layer continues to transmit, and another part continues to propagate along the fibre core of seven core fibres 8, when reaching second optical fiber spherical structure 9, coupling effect Rate significantly improves, and cladding mode is again coupled into fibre core, is interfered with core mode, forms Mach-Zehnder interference.
Output transmission spectral intensity can indicate after Mach-Zehnder structure interferes are as follows:
In formula, k1And k2The respectively coefficient of coup of the transmission light when optical fiber spherical structure 7 and 9 transmits, η is cladding mode Transmission loss, IinIt is the light intensity of input light, Δ φ is the transmission through seven core fibre of interlude, the phase of core mode and cladding mode Potential difference
Since the propagation constant between different mode is different, after propagating same distance, different modes can generate phase Poor core mode and the phase difference of cladding mode generation are
When the interference effect that phase difference meets Δ φ=(2m+1) π (m is positive integer) Shi Fasheng destructive interference structure is saturating Penetrating spectrum trough wavelength may be expressed as:
In formula, Δ neffEffective refractive index for core mode and m rank cladding mode is poor, and L is the length of interferometer, and N is indicated The coefficient of phase difference when transmission spectrum is in trough.
Temperature sensing test is carried out using the transmission spectrum trough peak value drift of interferometer, when interferometer is influenced by temperature, The variation of optical path difference occurs for optical fiber at interference structure, and transmission spectrum can drift therewith.
Fig. 4 (a) is the transmission spectrum of fiber interference structure under different temperatures, is followed successively by 50 DEG C, 59 DEG C, 66.5 from left to right DEG C, 75.5 DEG C, 84 DEG C, 93.3 DEG C, 101.2 DEG C, 110.5 DEG C, 117.7 DEG C, the curve of spectrum at 126.4 DEG C.As can be seen that with The raising of temperature, interference spectrum is mobile to long wave length direction, carries out peak-seeking to the optical wavelength trough of spectrum trough, and by peak-seeking Value and spectral depth record and analyze the variation of temperature, this group of data are carried out with the linear fit of least square method, it is known that, Interference spectrum valley value varies with temperature linear variation.Temperature-wavelength formula is as follows:
In formula, m is damping peak order, and L is seven core fibre length, KTFor the coefficient of temperature and the relationship of wavelength change. Therefore the sensing characteristics be can use and carry out temperature test.
The calibration of temperature sensitivity coefficient:
Interference structure is put into temperature calibration case, records a spectrum at interval of 5 DEG C of variations, interfere the wavelength of trough with The raising of temperature is to long wave length direction drift.As shown in Fig. 4 (b), the linearity reaches 0.9855, and spectral depth is basically unchanged.Root The temperature at interference structure can be calculated by the corresponding wavelength of measurement spectrum trough according to the linear relationship.
