摘要：
All-fiber Fabry-Perot accelerometer based on cantilever structure is investigated. The Fabry-Perot structure is formed by hollow core photonic crystal fibers (HCPCF) and normal single mode fiber by using simple cleaving and splicing methods. Such kind of Fabry-Perot sensing structure is sensitive to strain, but is non-sensitive to temperature and bending. We analyze the relationship between the cavity length of HCPCF Fabry-Perot and light intensity, photoelectric detector voltage and the eccentricity of the free end of cantilever. Finally, we get the simple theoretical formula of computing acceleration. Experimental results show that this kind of Fabry-Perot can be used to measure acceleration, the resolution of the measuring system is about 8.42×10-7 g, and the sensitivity is 0.3386 V/g.
