Abstract

A 10 μm (length) × 75 μm (depth) open channel is fabricated in fibre Bragg gratings (FBG) by femtosecond laser micromachining. The FBG Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity formed by this complex structure has a length of 4 mm; value estimated from interference spectrum for the air open channel. Reflection spectra of FBG FP cavity as a function of the temperature shows the cavity phase change. The sensor is thermally characterized by filling polymer in the channel and subsequent UV curing; the results show a period shift of approximately 12 x10^-3, value obtained of interferometer pattern for 30°C temperature range.
