Issue Date: | 15-Aug-2017 | Source: | Journal of lightwave technology, 15 Aug. 2017, v. 35, no. 16, p. 3413-3424 | Abstract: | Recent progress in gas detection with hollow-core microstructured optical fibers (HC-MOFs) and direct absorption/photothermal interferometry spectroscopy are reported. For direct-absorption sensors, the issue of mode interference noise is addressed and techniques to minimize such a noise are experimentally demonstrated. Large-scale drilling of hundreds of low-loss micro-channels along a single HC-MOF is performed, and reduction of diffusion-limited response time from hours to similar to 40 s is demonstrated with a 2.3-m-long HC-MOF. For photothermal inteferometry sensors, novel detection configurations based on respectively a Sagnac interferometer and an in-fiber modal interferometer are experimentally demonstrated. The Sagnac configuration avoids the need for complex servo-control for interferometer stabilization while the in-fiber configuration simplifies the detection, reducing the size and cost of the sensor system. Sub ppm gas detection can be achieved easily with photothermal interferometry HC-MOF sensors but is difficult to achieve for direct-absorption sensors with the current commercial HC-MOFs. | Keywords: | Gas detectors Optical fiber applications Optical fiber measurements Optical fiber sensors Optical spectroscopy Photothermal interferometry |
