Abstract

An erbium-doped fiber laser utilizing a broadband mirror as the end reflector and an intracore Bragg grating as the output coupler is designed and developed. This arrangement is used as a laser sensor to improve interrogation efficiency of intracore Bragg gratings over broadband sensor interrogation methods. Wavelength tuning of the fiber laser has been achieved by varying the temperature and strain on the Bragg grating, demonstrating an improved SNR with respect to the previous techniques that use broadband interrogation of the Bragg grating sensor.
