Fiber Optic Sensors, Second Edition (Optical Science and Engineering)

Buy
In recent years, fiber optic sensors have developed from the laboratory research and development stage to practical applications. The market for fiber optic sensor technology may be divided into two broad categories of sensors: intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic sensors are used in medicine, defense, and aerospace applications, and they can be used to measure temperature, pressure, humidity, acceleration, and strain. Extrinsic sensors are used in telecommunications to monitor the status and performance of the optical fibers within a network.

The purpose of this updated book is to provide a tutorial overview on fiber optic sensor principles and applications. In particular, the updated and new chapters reflect both the recent advances in fiber optic sensor technology itself (such as the application of photonic crystal fibers to fiber optic gyroscopes and fiber optic grating inscription by femtosecond laser illumination) and new application opportunities that have great potential (e.g., fiber optic sensors provide for medical treatment that is minimally invasive).

The need for both intrinsic and extrinsic fiber optic sensor technologies continues to grow. To meet the demands of this fast expanding applications-driven market, Fiber Optic Sensors, Second Edition presents both the latest advances in fiber optic sensor technology, such as the application of photonic crystal fibers to fiber optic gyroscopes, and recent application opportunities, including the use of fiber optic sensors as a minimally invasive medical treatment.

The new edition of this seminal work highlights the development of fiber optic sensors, while providing an overview of current methods for the construction of high-speed and high-capacity fiber optic systems. Two new chapters cover topics such as femtosecond laser illumination inscription and the growing application sector of fiber optic chemical and biological sensors.

Adding significant new material, the book continues to provide a progressive history of each sensor type as well as basic principles and fundamental building blocks for practical applications in the electrical aerospace, defense and manufacturing, smart structure, undersea surveillance, medical, and gas and oil industries.
