Optical strain sensor based on FPI micro-cavities produced by the fiber fuse effect

In this work we present a cost effective strain sensor based on micro-cavities produced through the re-use of optical fibers destroyed by the catastrophic fuse effect. The strain sensor estimated sensitivity is 2.22 +/- 0.08 pm/mu epsilon. After the fuse effect, the damaged fiber becomes useless and...
