High-Sensitivity Temperature Sensor Based on Polarization Maintaining Fiber Sagnac Loop

Abstract A high-sensitivity all-fiber temperature sensor based on a Sagnac interferometer is demonstrated by splicing a section of polarization maintaining fiber (PMF) between two sections of standard single mode fibers (SMFs). In this sensor, the SMF-PMF-SMF structure in the Sagnac loop is bent int...
