Measuring with light Part 1: The physics of fiber optics

Research output: Contribution to specialist publicationArticle

Abstract

The development of fiber-optic sensors has led to the creation of devices and systems that can measure more than 60 different parameters. The physical underpinnings of the light-guiding operation of fibers and an overview of the fundamental field manipulation techniques used in such sensors. This paper presents several mathematical models which show how electromagnetic waves affect fiber optic sensors.
