FOURTH EUROPEAN WORKSHOP ON OPTICAL FIBRE SENSORS
Abstract
In this work, a laser sensor that uses the multipath interference produced inside a ring cavity to measure the power loss induced by a moving taper intensity sensor is described. The laser is created due to the virtual distributed mirror formed by the Rayleigh scattering produced in a dispersion compensating fibre when pumped by a Raman laser. Two laser peaks were formed, one of them is obtained by the Raman gain (1555 nm) inside the ring and the second is created by the combination of the Raman gain and the Rayleigh scattering (1565 nm). A taper sensor is used as displacement sensor and with the increases of losses the second laser peak amplitude is reduced. In the process the first peak is maintained constant and can be used as reference level.

A taper sensor is used as displacement sensor and when the losses is applied in the taper the second laser peak is reduced and the first peak is maintained constant and can be used as reference level.

22ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON OPTICAL FIBER SENSORS, PTS 1-3
Abstract
In this work a fiber optic interferometric system for differential refractive index measurement is described. The system is based on a white light Mach-Zehnder configuration, with serrodyne phase modulation, to interrogate two similar non-adiabatic tapered optical fiber sensors in a differential scheme. In this situation it is possible to measure the refractive index independent of temperature. Signal processing with low cost digital instrumentation developed in Labview environment allows a detectable change in refractive index of Delta n approximate to 2x10(-6), which is, from the best of our knowledge the highest resolution achieved using a fiber taper device. The results demonstrate the potential of the proposed scheme to operate as chemical and biological sensing platform.

Abstract
An optical fibre intensity sensor referenced by stimulated Brillouin scattering is presented. The sensor uses Fresnel reflection at the sensor fibre end and employs an adequate relationship between Brillouin and Rayleigh scattering and Fresnel reflection. © 2006 OSA/OFS 2006.
