摘要
In this paper, a new method to measure the surrounding refractive index (SRI) is proposed. It is based on the core-only photoinduced birefringence of long-period fiber grating (LPFG). The relationship between Stokes parameters of output light polarization states and SRI is analyzed using full-vector coupled mode equations. Compared to the conventional LPFG SRI sensors, this sensing method features a fairly good linearity performance and reasonably high resolution over a much broader SRI measurement range from 1 to 1.46 which may be applied to the humidity and vapor sensing.
