The sensors presented in this chapter are fiber optic intensity modulated vibrations sensors which are non-contact (extrinsic sensor) to the vibrating object. Three sensors presented make use of non-contact vibration measurement method with plastic fiber using distinct designs, improvement of the sensor response and advantages of one sensor over the other for diverse applications. First discussed about dual plastic optical fiber vibration sensor design and its response. Secondly, discussed about 1x2 fused coupler plastic optical fiber vibration sensor design with advantages over the first one. Finally, discussed about the 2x2 fused coupler plastic optical fiber vibration sensor design along with advantages than other two methods. At the end reported the final results with comparison.

In this study, we have fabricated a fiber-optic dosimeter using an organic scintillator and a plastic optical fiber for measuring percentage depth doses with radiotherapeutic high energy photon beams. The scintillating light generated in an organic dosimeter probe embedded in a solid water phantom is guided by a plastic optical fiber to the light-measuring device. Using this fiber-optic dosimeter, percentage depth doses are measured with 6 and 15 MV energies of photon beams whose field sizes are 2 x 2 and 10 x 10 cm2, and the results are compared with those measured using conventional dosimeters such as an ionization chamber and EBT films used in radiotherapy dosimetry.

The aim of this study is to develop a new method to measure one-dimensional dose distribution of high-energy electron using a miniature fiber-optic radiation sensor. The measurements are made by a thin plastic optical fiber with an organic scintillating sensor tip. The scintillating light in the visible wavelength range is guided to a silicon photodiode by plastic optical fiber in order to convert light output to electrical signal. The one-dimensional spatial dependence of elctron beam is measured by moving the sensor tip with uniform speed. It is shown that this fiber-optic radiation sensor has better spatial resolution than conventional ion chamber and it needs much less time to measure one-dimensional dose distribution in the high radiation fields.
