100 are selected as, to remove high-frequency noise, makes curve smoothing, the peak-seeking after being is prepared.
Fig. 7 is the transmitted spectrum for observing optical fiber when not being bent, it can be seen that periodicity significantly relevant to wavelength, this with
The theory analysis of previous chapter is consistent.When gradually cylindrical body being promoted to increase curvature during the experiment, it can be seen from oscillograph
It observes, whole striped is moved to shortwave strong point, substantially linear.Therefore, we have selected two losses greatly place A
(1354.5nm), B (1423.0nm), come observe its with curvature is gradually increased when variation.
Fig. 8 is the variation tendency that the shown peak A increases with curvature, it is found that when curvature increases, the peak A is gradually to wave
Long shorter direction is mobile, and variation is approximately linear, and it is 4.7159nm/m that fitting, which can obtain sensitivity,-1, measurement range 0-
2.34m-1。
Fig. 9 is the variation tendency that increases with curvature of the shown peak B, and property and the peak A are substantially similar, with the increase of curvature,
Also the dynamic situation of hypsochromic shift is presented, but its sensitivity relatively has promotion, reaches 9.6036nm/m-1。
