Abstract :
We have proposed the use of a single bent singlemode -multimode-singlemode (SMS) fiber structure to measure both displacement and temperature simultaneously and independently. Our experimental results show that this sensor has a sensitivity of 5.89 pm/μm for displacement and 11.6 pm/°C for temperature.
