Sensor Fabrication
The sensor assembly consisted of 6 H-SiC vibration-sensitive element, AlN base, and Sapphire optic fiber. The experiment used the hammer excitation method for the modal analysis of the sensor to find

This Special Issue focuses on the innovative design of optical fiber sensor structures, including fiber Bragg gratings, long-period gratings, interferometric sensors, and advanced micro-structured fibers. Optical fiber sensors are devices that use optical fibers to detect and measure various parameters such as temperature, pressure, strain, and refractive index. The apparatus includes a heating source (110) and a robotic articulate arm (130) that may modify the geometry of an optical fiber (150). Nowadays fiber optic refractive index sensors are widely used in various fields such as chemical, biochemical, and in an industry field. The optical fibre can be used as a distributed sensor by exploiting light scattering effects or as a quasi-distributed sensor network by functionalizing the fibre through Bragg gratings photo-inscription for instance.
