    Fbg Fiber Bragg Grating Wavelength Calibration

    We discuss the fundamental limits of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) wavelength metrology. High-accuracy wavelength measurements are critical for FBG strain sensors because a wavelength measurement uncertainty as small as 1 pm leads to an uncertainty of nearly 1.

Our experts answer this and other questions. A variation of the period of the grating inscripted in a fiber optic – induced by mechanical or thermal perturbation – causes a shift of the reflected peak wavelength, due to the related optical path length variation.
