Abstract
En 中文
We propose a novel device defined as Random Optical Grating by Ultraviolet or ultrafast laser Exposure (ROGUE), a new type of fiber Bragg grating (FBG), exhibiting a weak reflection over a large bandwidth, which is independent of the length of the grating. This FBG is fabricated simply by dithering the phase randomly during the writing process. This grating has an enhanced backscatter, several orders of magnitude above typical Rayleigh backscatter of standard SMF-28 optical fiber. The grating is used in distributed sensing using optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR), allowing a significant increase in signal to noise ratio for strain and temperature measurement. This enhancement results in significantly lower strain or temperature noise level and accuracy error, without sacrificing the spatial resolution. Using this method, we show a sensor with a backscatter level 50 dB higher than standard unexposed SMF-28, which can thus compensate for increased loss in the system.
