Sensitivity Characterization of Cascaded Long-Period Gratings Operating near the Phase-Matching Turning Point

We characterized a cascaded long-period gratings (LPGs)-based sensor that was operating at the phase-matching turning point (PMTP). The cascaded LPGs constructed an in-fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI), which exhibited a series of high-quality-factor (<i>Q</i>) narrow-bandwidth res...
