This study proposes a multiplexed weak waist-enlarged fiber taper (WWFT) curvature sensor and its rapid fabrication method. Compared with other types of fiber taper, the proposed WWFT has no difference in appearance with the single mode fiber and has ultralow insertion loss. The fabrication of WWFT also does not need the repeated cleaving and splicing process, and thereby could be rapidly embedded into the inline sensing fiber without splicing point, which greatly enhances the sensor solidity. Owing to the ultralow insertion loss (as low as 0.15 dB), the WWFT-based interferometer is further used for multiplexed curvature sensing. The results show that the different curvatures can be individually detected by the multiplexed interferometers. Furthermore, it also shows that diverse responses for the curvature changes exist in two orthogonal directions, and the corresponding sensitivities are determined to be 79.1°/m−1 and –48.0°/m−1 respectively. This feature can be potentially applied for vector curvature sensing.

AbstractThis paper describes the results of extensive performance and reliability characterization of a silicon-based surface micro-machined tunable optical filter. The device comprises a high-finesse Fabry-Perot etalon with one flat and one curved dielectric mirror. The curved mirror is mounted on an electrostatically actuated silicon nitride membrane tethered to the substrate using silicon nitride posts. A voltage applied to the membrane allows the device to be tuned by adjusting the length of the cavity. The device is coupled optically to an input and an output single mode fiber inside a hermetic package. Extensive performance characterization (over operating temperature range) was performed on the packaged device. Parameters characterized included tuning characteristics, insertion loss, filter line-width and side mode suppression ratio. Reliability testing was performed by subjecting the MEMS structure to a very large number of actuations at an elevated temperature both inside the package and on a test board. The MEMS structure was found to be extremely robust, running trillions of actuations without failures. Package level reliability testing conforming to Telcordia standards indicated that key device parameters including insertion loss, filter line-width and tuning characteristics did not change measurably over the duration of the test.
