Abstract:
A distributed fiber optic intrusion sensor capable of detecting intruders from the pressure of their weight on the earth's surface was investigated in the laboratory and in field tests. The presence of an intruder above or in proximity to the buried sensor induces a phase shift in light propagating along the fiber which allows for the detection and localization of intrusions. Through the use of an ultra-stable erbium-doped fiber laser and phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometry, disturbances were monitored in long (several km) lengths of optical fiber.

<p>A practical fiber optic strain sensor has been developed to measure strains in the range of 0.0 to 2.0 percent strain with a resolution ranging between 10 and 100 microstrain depending on sensor design choices. This intensity based sensor measures strain by monitoring strain induced longitudinal misalignment in a novel fiber interconnection. This interconnection is created by aligning fibers within a segment of hollow core fiber. Related splice loss mechanisms are investigated for their effect on resolution.

PH sensors are widely used in chemical plants, laboratories and hospitals, so a fiber optic pH sensor is proposed to measure the pH value of an aqueous solution. With the help of an acid-base indicator, an aqueous solution with different pH value has different absorption of light. Detecting the optical power of an aqueous solution, the pH value can be assessed. However, according to previous researches, the meas

碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>光電科學與工程研究所<br>97<br>In this dissertation, a fiber-base sensor integrated in a microfluidic system is investigated. The fiber sensor is able to detect the refractive index change at the exposed fiber core created by a time-controlled HF etch of the fiber. Effects of the etch time and exposed length to the sensitivity are also studied. The fiber sensor is also modified by covalent bonding of colloid gold nanoparticles to the exposed fiber core surface. The strong localized surface plasmon resonance scattering from the gold nanoparticles is able to enhance the sensitivity of t

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>光電工程系所<br>93<br>In the first part of the thesis, we propose and investigate experimentally a gain-clamped S-band erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA), a stable and single-longitudinal-mode oscillation of an S-band EDF ring laser. The behaviors and performances of the S-band amplifier have also been discussed in the text. Single-longitudinal-mode laser output can be realized by employing a Fabry-Perot filter and a saturable-absorber-based autotracking filter composed of an unpumped EDF and an optical reflector. The performance of output power is larger then 10 dBm and a side-mode

Sensors have become essential elements in human life for safe and comfortable existence in the ever demanding world. Various technologies over decades have contributed in their own way fulfilling innumerable sensing requirements. The discovery of optical sensor technologies has revolutionized the sensing field due to their inherent advantages. Among the large number of fiber optic sensor technologies, FBG based sensors have become widely known and popular within and outside the photonics community and has seen a prominent rise in their utilization.
