Abstract

A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) inscribed Zeonex-based novel, to the best of our knowledge, side hole polymer optical fiber (SHPOF) is proposed and demonstrated for low gas pressure measurement above and below the atmospheric pressure. Two different grades of Zeonex have been used to fabricate the core and cladding of this fiber, thereby making it dopant free. The side hole introduced in the cladding is parallel to the fiber core. A few ultrashort pulses with nanosecond duration have been used to write the FBG in the core of this fiber. The incorporation of the side hole leads to enhancement of pressure sensitivity as well as low hysteresis and performance repeatability compared to Zeonex-based conventional polymer optical fiber (CPOF). Above the atmospheric pressure, the proposed probe shows a pressure sensitivity of 0.47 pm/kPa, which is 80% more compared to the Zeonex-based CPOF and 0.48 pm/kPa for regime below atmospheric pressure. The sensor has a resolution of 2.12 kPa and exhibited very low hysteresis.
