30 June 1998Liquid-core fiber for temperature sensing
In the paper a interferometric sensor for measuring temperature by means of liquid-core fiber is described. The experimental results and theoretical calculations show that a temperature variation of 10-4 degrees C can be measured. We have developed a liquid-core multimode fiber. The liquid-core fiber are composed of hollow silica filled of chlorobenzene. High sensitivity is achieved by the interferometric measuring. It can profitably be employed in spectrum research and sensing.
