本文介绍了一种新型的光子晶体光纤（PCF）温度传感器，该传感器是基于光强调制和液体乙醇填充光子晶体光纤的折射率导向气孔。当所用液体乙醇的热光学系数高于二氧化硅的热光学系数时，PCF的模场、有效折射率和约束损耗都变得高度依赖于温度，并且这种温度依赖关系是d/Lambda比和输入波长的递增函数。本文讨论了所有的实验和仿真，实验确定了10cm长的PCF的传输功率的温度灵敏度为0.315 dB/℃。(C) 2010年美国光学学会
We introduce a novel photonic crystal fiber (PCF) temperature sensor that is based on intensity modulation and liquid ethanol filling of air holes with index-guiding PCF. The mode field, the effective refractive index and the confinement loss of PCF were all found to become highly temperature-dependent when the thermo-optic coefficient of the liquid ethanol used is higher than that of silicon dioxide and this temperature dependence is an increasing function of the d/Lambda ratio and the input wavelength. All the experiments and simulations are discussed in this paper and the temperature sensitivity of transmission power was experimentally determined to be 0.315 dB/degrees C for a 10-cm long PCF.
