Birefringent Bragg Grating in C-Shaped Optical Fiber as a Temperature-Insensitive Refractometer

Birefringent Bragg Grating in C-Shaped Optical Fiber as a Temperature-Insensitive Refractometer

We demonstrate a simple-to-fabricate refractometer based on the inscription of fiber Bragg gratings in a special C-shaped optical fiber. The C-shaped fiber was drawn into shape using a quarter cladding removed preform of a commercial standard single-mode fiber by simple machining. The sensor did not...
