Abstract

Although still relatively new, the field of fiber-optic sensor technology1 is maturing at a rapid pace. The development of this technology is being carried out at a number of government, industrial, and academic laboratories and extends to virtually all sensor types and applications. Fiber-optic sensors are expected to provide new dimensions in sensing technology and, depending on the application, can be made generally more sensitive, smaller, lighter, more flexible, more immune to electromagnetic interference, more compatible with hostile environments, and ultimately less expensive than conventional sensor technology. In addition, the potential exists for direct interfacing to optical data links.
