FBG in polymer optical fibers (POFs) is a promising technology for a wide range of sensing applications due to a lower Young's modulus and a large range of applying strain. Furthermore, POFs have several properties which make them attractive for biosensing applications such as nonbrittle nature, flexibility in bending and biocompatibility.
Chirped Fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs), which are characterized by a nonuniform modulation of the refractive index show a broad reflection spectrum, enabling shortlength distributed sensing. The combining benefits of POF and CFBGs is attractive for biomedical applications. Here, we present a novel method to obtain CFBG in POF with a postprocess uniform POF FBG by using resin.
