High-sensitivity pressure sensor using a polymer-embedded FBG

A new pressure sensor based on fiber Bragg gratings (FBG), is described with high-pressure sensitivity. The sensor is configured by embedding the FBG in a polymer-field aluminum casing with an opening on one side, which is exposed to pressure measurand. The measured pressure response is 0.06 nm/psi...
