Optical fibers consist of a core with a high refractive index and a cladding with a lower refractive index. Total internal reflection keeps the light in the core and guides it along the fiber. Optical fibers are therefore not only important for data transmission, but are also a versatile tool in sensor technology.
In extrinsic sensor systems, the optical fiber serves as a light guide. The actual measurement takes place outside the fiber. Here, the optical fiber is used to guide UV light from a light source into a fiber optic immersion probe or flow cell, for example, and from there to a detector. In this way, the concentration of proteins in a solution can be determined by measuring the light absorption at a wavelength of 280 nm.
In intrinsic sensor systems, the fiber itself is the sensor. Changes in external conditions have a direct effect on the fiber and influence, for example: Intensity, phase, polarization, wavelength or propagation time of the light signal.
