Through-The-Coating Fabrication of Fiber Bragg Grating Relative Humidity Sensors Using Femtosecond Pulse Duration Infrared Lasers and a Phase Mask

Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) relative humidity (RH) sensors are fabricated in commercially available polyimide (PI)-coated optical fibers with diameters of 50 and 125 μm. Infrared (800 nm) femtosecond pulse duration laser pulses and a phase mask are used to inscribe Type-I and Type-II FBGs directly thr...
