Advances in optical fiber bragg grating sensor technologies?

Abstract

The authors review their recent advances in the development of optical fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor technologies. After a brief review of the fiber grating sensors, several newly developed FBG sensors are described. With the continuous development of fiber materials, microstructures and post-processing technologies, FBG sensors are still creative after the first demonstration of permanent gratings thirty years ago. © The Author(s) 2011.
