Silicon Core Fiber Optic Sensing
Particular focus is placed on their potential use in various applications, such as optical modulators, wavelength conversion, amplification, in-fiber junctions and diodes, photovoltaic fibers, and sensors/wearable structures. Silicon-core optical fibres represent a convergence of semiconductor photonics and conventional fibre technology, embedding a crystalline silicon or silicon–germanium alloy core within a glass cladding. This architecture combines the high refractive index contrast and pronounced nonlinear response. The study of the FSBS effect in silicon-core fibers facilitates further theoretical exploitation of the potential of FSBS in fiber-optic sensing. Although conventional silica glass fibres are routinely used in. Second, we designed and simulated a silicon core-based fiber Bragg grating and applied it for simultaneous sensing of temperature and environmental refractive index. The sensitivities for the temperature and refractive index were 80. ©2023 The Author(s) Since their first.
