    • A torsion sensor using an optical waveguide in optical communication with a diffraction grating, preferably a tilted grating, and most preferably a tilted Bragg grating, which provides the optical waveguide and grating with a torsion-dependent collective optical transmission spectrum. Changes in the collective optical transmission spectrum of the waveguide and grating, induced by changes in the amount of torsion applied to the waveguide, may be detected by detecting a corresponding change in the intensity of optical radiation transmitted through the grating from a controlled optical source. The degree of change in the collective optical transmission spectrum is dependent upon the degree of torsion (twist) applied to the optical waveguide. Measuring the magnitude and/or sense (i.e. increase/decrease) in the intensity of optical radiation transmitted through the grating from an optical source enables torsion to be sensed.
    • 一种扭转传感器,其使用与衍射光栅光学通信的光波导,优选为倾斜光栅,最优选为倾斜布拉格光栅,其向光波导和光栅提供扭转依赖的集体光透射光谱。 可以通过从受控光源检测透过光栅的光辐射的强度的相应变化来检测由施加到波导的扭转量的变化而引起的波导和光栅的集体光透射光谱的变化。 集体光透射光谱的变化程度取决于施加到光波导的扭转程度(扭曲)。 测量从光源传输通过光栅的光辐射的强度的大小和/或感觉(即增加/减少)使得能够感测扭转。

    • Apparatus for sensing temperature and/or strain in an object includes a broadband light source (1), connector means (2) in the form of an optical circulator or an optical coupler to which at least two substantially identical optical fiber Bragg gratings (4, 5) are connected. Grating (4) receives the broadband light from the connector means (2) and functions as a sensor of temperature and/or strain in an object. Light is reflected back from the grating (4) to the connector means (2) and then passed to the grating (5) which acts as a reference grating through which a light output signal is transmitted to a detector (8) which is conveniently a photodetector. Means are provided for chirping the two gratings (4, 5) at the same bandwidth and the detector (8) measures the intensity of the received light output signal, with the intensity being monotonically related to the change in temperature and/or strain sensed by the grating (4) in the object.

    • Surface plasmon generation on a metal or semiconductor layer at an outer surface of an optical waveguide, using light reflected or scattered from inside the optical waveguide. One aspect provides a main optical waveguide (11) (e.g. optical fibre) having a second optical waveguide (18) adhered thereto, the second optical waveguide including an optically transparent material (610) separating two surface plasmon supporting layers (600, 620). Another aspect provides a surface plasmon supporting layer of material(s) adhered to the main optical waveguide, the layer having photo-induced regions of material compaction. The regions of compaction may cause un-inscribed refractive index modulations in the main optical waveguide. The surface plasmons are coupled to the guided mode(s) in the main optical waveguide. Surface plasmon resonance depends on sample material in contact with an outermost surface plasmon supporting layer. Properties of the sample material can thus be detected in output guided mode(s) because of the coupling with the generated surface plasmons.

    • A Gires-Tournois etalon (GTE) (10) comprising an optical fibre (12) in which a primary chirped fibre Bragg grating (FBG) (16) is provided, an RF signal generator (20), a piezoelectric transducer (22), and a glass horn (24), for coupling an acoustic wave (26) into the fibre (12). The acoustic wave (26) causes a periodic compression within the fibre (12), which induces a low frequency periodic refractive index modulation within the grating section (14) of the fibre (12). This causes two side frequency components to be generated for each high-frequency component of the FBG (16). Two secondary grating are thus excited, having the same spectral bandwidth as the FBG (16), but a lower reflectivity and different central wavelengths. The free spectral range of the GTE (10) can be adjusted by varying the frequency of the acoustic wave (26). The reflectivity of the excited secondary gratings can be adjusted by adjusting the amplitude of the acoustic wave (26).

    • A modulator of the type including an array of light modulating elements. To afford fast response and thus greater modulation bandwidth these elements, each comprising a pair of electrodes and a reflector, are defined in a sheet layer of electro-optic solids material. In particular, this material may be of PLZT ceramics material or of a similar ceramic having a high electro-optic coefficient (quadratic). To advantage, the electrodes may be embedded in the sheet layer. Each modulating element is aligned with and connected to a corresponding drive circuit, part of an integrated circuit structure. Conveniently, solder bumps are used to this end.Light is directed onto the array of modulating elements by an optical interface. This may comprise an array of micro-lenses which too may be aligned by solder bumps. A second reflector may be added to each modulating element, each then being optically resonant.
